Why must a buyer provide evidence that their downpayment is from personal resources?

  1. To comply with anti-fraud measures

  2. To receive tax benefits

  3. To qualify for government grants

  4. To avoid additional bank fees

  5. To increase credit score

  6. To adjust property valuation

The correct answer is: To comply with anti-fraud measures

Buyers are required to provide evidence that their downpayment is from personal resources to comply with anti-fraud measures. This is crucial in real estate transactions to prevent fraudulent activities such as money laundering, misrepresentation of funds, or fraudulent mortgage applications. By verifying the source of the downpayment, it helps ensure the legitimacy of the transaction and protects all parties involved. This practice is a standard procedure in the real estate industry to maintain transparency and trust in the transaction process. The other options are not directly related to the requirement for providing evidence of personal resources for the downpayment. Tax benefits, government grants, avoiding bank fees, increasing credit score, and adjusting property valuation are not the primary reasons why buyers need to demonstrate the source of their downpayment.
