Do you need proof of income to buy a house cash?

Good news: if you’re buying a home entirely with cash, you technically don’t need proof of income. Cash buyers don’t go through traditional lenders, so your salary or employment history isn’t a factor.

BUT here’s the catch:

  • Title & Escrow: Even with cash, escrow and title companies may ask for proof of funds to make sure the money is legitimate. Bank statements or investment account statements usually work.
  • Tax and legal compliance: Large cash transactions often trigger reporting requirements, so being ready with proof of funds keeps things smooth.
  • Financing flexibility later: If you ever decide to get a mortgage later, having a clear income history will still be important.

At Trealtorr, we help cash buyers:

  • Verify funds quickly
  • Handle all paperwork smoothly
  • Navigate grants or programs if you decide to partially finance instead
