  • Your Credit Report, Banks run their own copy, but you need to get your own Credit Report to verify that it's squeaky clean, and fix it if it's not.
  • Bank statements for the last 2-6 months. 3 months is typical.
  • If you had a bankruptcy, collect all the paperwork together.
  • Last 2 consecutive pay stubs. Get 60 days worth, some banks ask for more.
  • Monthly statements or coupon books from loans you are paying off.

  • Property tax statement from last year if you paid any.
  • If you are a recent graduate, get your transcripts, they will ask for them.
