FAQ
Large gifts require them — Small financial gifts may not require a gift letter to be signed. However, the amount necessary to need a gift letter depends upon the income of the person receiving the gift. Any gift you receive that's over half the value of your household monthly income will require one.
Documentation Requirements Gifts must be evidenced by a letter signed by the donor, called a gift letter. When the gift is sourced by a trust established by an acceptable donor or an estate of an acceptable donor, the gift letter must be signed by the donor and list the name of the trust or the estate account.
Gift funds must be from an acceptable source such as savings accounts, stocks or savings bonds. Gift funds must be verified entering into a borrower's bank account and leaving the donor's bank account.
Documentation Requirements The gift letter must: specify the actual or the maximum dollar amount of the gift; include the donor's statement that no repayment is expected; and. indicate the donor's name, address, telephone number, and relationship to the borrower.
This letter proactively allows you to explain any bumps you may have encountered on your financial journey such as gaps in employment or substantial withdrawals from your bank account. Done correctly (and timely) an LOE could be your chance to hopefully speed up the process of getting your mortgage approved.
Typically, for conventional loans and VA loans, lenders require an explanation for any gift you receive that's over half the value of your total household monthly income. For instance, if you earn $5,000 a month in income, lenders require a letter for any gifts you receive that are more than $2,500.
They are legally binding — While giving a family member a financial gift may not feel like a big deal to some people, gift letters are not only a formality. They are a legally binding document that both parties must sign.
Verifying the Gift Funds A copy of the donor's check and borrower's deposit slip. A copy of the donor's withdrawal slip and borrower's deposit slip. Proof of the electronic transfer of funds from the donor's account to the borrower's account or to the closing agent. A copy of the donor's check to the closing agent.
