“…several sources said that a forensic accountancy expert was one of the investigators and that the US Postal Inspection Service was also involved.”

Oh, man, the US Postal Inspection Service? SAVAGE

So, turns out that one of OceanGate’s related / shell companies, OceanGate Inc, created yet another company, “Cyclops 2 LLC”, to which OceanGate (not-Inc) sold the Titan (which was originally called Cyclops 2), which then in turn leased the submersible to OceanGate.

Investors who put at least $250,000 into Cyclops 2 LLC would receive quarterly payments back from the lease of Titan to OceanGate. For example, at the start of 2019, the Titan was undergoing testing in the Bahamas and was still two years from its maiden voyage with paying passengers. Nevertheless, a document prepared for an OceanGate board meeting reported: “Current Cyclops 2 LLC investors have already received 13 percent cash return from OceanGate from contracting the use of Titan.” OceanGate stated that having investors own the submersibles “provides unique cash flow and tax benefits.”

Apparently this is a thing that’s common in aviation, but in that industry, the entity that owns the craft and the one that leases it aren’t usually run by the same person, as was the case with the Titan agreement (that person being Stockton Rush).

The article talks about how while this arrangement was initially beneficial in bringing OceanGate cash, by the time of the implosion they were suffering serious money issues (mentioned by several witnesses at the BoI), so much so that they’re were trying to sell spots on the summer 2023 expedition “… at a 40 percent discount.”

As much as it seems like the systemic corner-cutting that seemed to be going on was related to cash flow issues, I feel like (based on the testimony) that it had been baked into the culture at OceanGate long before then.

I know I've been posting more about politics lately, and it's caused me to lose a chunk of followers.

But I'm a queer person with a degree in political science and its an election year. I'm old friends with several of my city council members. I've been to trainings on how to run elections. I spent my college years working for nonprofits (and being the world's worst canvasser). I'm close with more than one person who works for unions, and I have family members who work for government agencies.

I think about politics in a very pragmatic "I know how the sausage is made" kind of way. We're in a vice press, and there's only one way to release the pressure.

The revolution ain't coming. There is no one to save us but us.

So yeah, I'm going to be pissed if your answer is "let them tighten the vice -- there's no way out of the vice, it doesn't matter if they loosen or tighten it."

There's a difference, and anyone telling you otherwise is likely a psyop or someone who fell for a psyop. This literally happened before, and it's happening again.

Stop falling for it.

#why do you think republicans hate him so much??

Reducing Operational Costs with Digital Signatures

A digital signature is an electronic form of authentication that guarantees the integrity and authenticity of a digital document. It utilizes cryptographic algorithms to ensure that the document has not been tampered with and confirms the identity of the sender. Digital signatures are widely used in legal, financial, and business processes, making them a critical tool for modern enterprises.

By replacing traditional wet signatures with digital alternatives, businesses can reduce paperwork, speed up processes, and maintain high levels of security.

How Digital Signatures Reduce Operational Costs

Lower Paper and Printing Costs

One of the most immediate savings is the elimination of paper-based processes.

Printing, photocopying, and managing physical paperwork involve costs related to paper, ink, and maintenance of office printers.

Organizations using digital signatures can significantly reduce these expenses by digitizing contracts, invoices, and other documents.

Example: Banks and insurance companies that process large volumes of documents can save thousands annually by switching to digital signing processes.

Reduced Mailing and Courier Expenses

Traditional document handling often requires mailing contracts or using courier services for signature collection.

With digital signatures, documents can be signed and returned electronically, reducing postal and courier fees.

Example: A law firm sending multiple contracts to clients across the country can save substantial courier charges by using e-signatures.

Minimized Storage and Archiving Costs

Storing physical documents involves expenses for office space, filing cabinets, and offsite storage facilities.

Digital signatures allow businesses to store documents securely in the cloud or digital archives, cutting storage costs and simplifying retrieval processes.

Example: Corporates with extensive legal documentation can migrate to digital archives, reducing storage-related expenses and minimizing clutter.

Faster Turnaround Time Reduces Operational Delays

Manual processes involving the collection of physical signatures can delay transactions, leading to higher operational costs.

Digital signatures enable instant signing and approval, streamlining workflows and ensuring faster execution of contracts, agreements, and payments.

Impact on Cost: Faster processing time reduces the costs associated with idle capital, missed business opportunities, and penalties due to delayed approvals.

Boosting Efficiency with Digital Signatures

Automated Workflow Integration

Digital signature solutions can be integrated with workflow automation tools, enabling seamless document routing, approval, and signing processes.

Automated reminders and notifications ensure that approvals are completed on time, reducing the need for manual follow-ups.

Enhanced Employee Productivity

Employees no longer need to spend hours managing paperwork, filing documents, or coordinating with multiple departments for signatures.

By freeing employees from time-consuming tasks, businesses can redirect their efforts to more value-adding activities, thereby improving productivity.

Improved Client Experience

Digital signatures offer convenience to customers, vendors, and partners by allowing them to sign documents from anywhere, at any time.

A smoother, faster, and paperless experience increases customer satisfaction and reduces customer service costs.

Ensuring Security and Compliance at Lower Costs

Reduction in Fraudulent Activities

Digital signatures employ encryption and identity verification methods, which help in preventing document tampering and identity fraud.

Reduced instances of fraud save businesses from incurring legal costs and financial losses.

Compliance with Regulatory Requirements

Many industries, such as finance, healthcare, and government, require strict compliance with data privacy and record-keeping regulations.

Digital signatures are legally recognized under laws like the Information Technology Act (India), eIDAS (EU), and ESIGN Act (US), ensuring compliance without the need for additional legal processes.

Lower Risk Management Costs

Secure and traceable document transactions reduce the risks of non-compliance and disputes.

In case of audits or legal inquiries, digitally signed documents can be easily retrieved and verified, saving legal and administrative costs.

Sustainability and Cost Savings

Reduced Environmental Impact

Going paperless with digital signatures reduces the environmental footprint, aligning businesses with sustainable practices.

Reduced use of paper and ink contributes to environmental conservation and can improve the company’s reputation among environmentally conscious customers and partners.

Energy Savings

With fewer physical documents to manage, businesses can reduce energy consumption associated with printers, copiers, and filing systems.

Decreased reliance on courier services also helps lower fuel consumption and emissions, contributing to energy savings.

Industries Benefiting from Digital Signatures

Banking and Financial Services

Banks and financial institutions handle a large volume of contracts, loan agreements, and customer onboarding documents. Digital signatures allow them to process applications and agreements faster, reducing the costs associated with customer acquisition and document management.

Healthcare Sector

Hospitals and clinics use digital signatures for patient consent forms, insurance claims, and administrative tasks. This reduces paperwork and speeds up processes, ensuring better service delivery and lower administrative costs.

Legal Industry

Law firms rely heavily on contracts and agreements, often requiring multiple parties' signatures. Digital signatures streamline contract management, reduce courier expenses, and minimize the risk of document tampering.

E-Government Services

Governments use digital signatures to offer paperless services, such as tax filing, tendering, and public procurement. This reduces operational costs while improving transparency and service delivery.

Challenges and Solutions in Implementing Digital Signatures

Adoption Resistance

Some employees or customers may resist adopting digital signatures due to unfamiliarity with the technology. Businesses can address this by providing training and clear instructions for users.

Initial Setup Costs

Implementing digital signature solutions involves initial setup and software costs. However, the long-term savings far outweigh these investments.

Legal Recognition Across Borders

While digital signatures are legally recognized in many countries, cross-border transactions may encounter challenges. Businesses can overcome this by choosing globally recognized digital signature providers.

Read this blog:- Class 3 Digital Signature.

Conclusion

Digital signatures are transforming the way businesses operate by reducing operational costs and streamlining workflows. From eliminating paper-based processes to enhancing security and compliance, digital signatures offer numerous advantages that contribute to both cost savings and improved efficiency. By adopting digital signatures, businesses can not only achieve immediate savings but also align themselves with sustainable practices for long-term growth.

The cost-effectiveness of digital signatures makes them an essential tool for organizations looking to stay competitive in a rapidly evolving digital landscape. As more industries embrace this technology, the cumulative savings and operational improvements will continue to drive the shift toward a paperless, more efficient future.

It takes a lot of study to purchase your ideal home, including investigating the area, climate, interior design, and accessibility. While often disregarded, the financial component of purchasing real estate is equally crucial. Numerous modest and large payments might make a considerable difference in the property's price. The terms "Registration Charges," "Stamp Duty," "Loan Processing Charges," "Technical Appraisal Charges," "Franking Charges," and so forth may have been mentioned during discussions with the seller. In order to prevent defaults and guarantee a seamless home-buying experience, it is critical to comprehend the meaning of these costs.

Franking Charges: What Is It?

Stamp duty is a levy that you must pay to the government in order for the acquisition of real estate to be approved. The franking charge is an additional stamp duty-related expense that most purchasers are unaware of. Stamp duty and franking costs are sometimes mistaken for one another. These two charges are typically charged concurrently, which is the main cause of this misconception. They are distinct charges, though, and we will talk about both the meaning of franking and the meaning of franking charges in this article.

Franking: What Is It?

Franking is only the act of franking an agreement. It is a seal that certifies that stamp duty has been paid. Thus, the process of having property documents stamped is called "franking."

Authorized organizations, including banks, offer franking services. We can enlist the assistance of these organizations to place a stamp or a denomination on the document in order to demonstrate its legitimacy.

Sub-registrar offices throughout various Indian states have Franking machines installed in order to complete the Franking process.

Advantages of Franking

The use of franking machines as opposed to stamps has various advantages. Among them are:

Lower Postage Costs: Since you only need to buy postage once, as opposed to for each letter or package, franked mail is less expensive to send than stamped mail. Convenience: You may quickly and easily prepare your mail for dispatch with a franking machine, saving you a trip to the post office. You save time and energy, which are sometimes very valuable resources!

Efficiency: A clean, reliable impression is always produced by a well-maintained franking machine. This facilitates the accurate identification and sorting of your mail by postal workers, ensuring that it gets to its destination as soon as possible.

Why was Franking invented?

Printing the agreement on non-judicial stamp sheets was the previous method of verifying the payment of stamp duty. The government had to put an end to this method since it resulted in stamp paper scams, abuse, and forgeries.

Bank Franking Procedure

Franking must be completed at this stage, prior to signing the paperwork, once all necessary information has been transcribed onto a blank sheet of paper. To approach the relevant body, you or the vendor must fill out an application with the franking details.

Not every bank is permitted to accept stamp duty. Even yet, the authorized institutions will be limited to a specific daily volume and will only be able to open a particular amount of documents each day. It is crucial that you get in contact with the bank early in the day or through a designated representative. It is advised to schedule a prior appointment with the relevant official, as franking necessitates advance planning on the part of the authorities.

The bank that you are using to obtain the home loan will give you the precise information and representatives about particulars.

Charges

The authority franking your documents, such as banks and agencies, must be compensated. State governments set the amount, which differs from state to state. Regardless of the value of the property, some states have a flat cost. Nonetheless, the majority of states charge a fee equal to 0.1% of the loan amount or the entire sale price of the property. Due to the strong correlation between franking charges and stamp duty, franking charges are typically subtracted from stamp duty, and stamp duty is amended to incorporate them.

The Indian states' corresponding franking charges are as follows:

Maharashtra's Franking Charges: 0.1%

In Telangana, fucking charges are 0.1%

For instance, there will be an additional Rs. 8,000 in fees associated with franking charges if you are purchasing a house valued at Rs. 80 lakh. Now, if the franking charge has been paid, you will only be required to pay 5.4% of the property value as stamp duty if the stamp duty in your state is 5.5% of the value. This change won't be performed if you choose to pay stamp duty using a different method. (The stamp duty rates are subject to change and vary across states; the figures shown are only examples.)

Remember that most home loans do not cover stamp duty or franking costs, so be ready for this and keep it in mind when choosing a home loan vendor.

Document Franking

Printing the agreement on plain white paper is necessary when franking a document. You must take the agreement and the supporting documentation to a franking agency or an authorized bank before they are executed or signed. There, they will offer you an application form, you will pay the stamp duty charge, and a stamp will be applied to the document to indicate the amount of stamp duty paid.

How to Calculate Franking Charges

States have different franking fees. The franking costs in Telangana and Maharashtra differ as a result. Usually, it represents 0.1% of the purchase price. For example, the franking charge on a house purchased for Rs. 40 lakhs would be Rs. 4,000. Remember that the franking stamp fee is part of the stamp duty duties as well. Therefore, if the appropriate stamp duty in your state is 6.5 percent, you would have to pay 6.4 percent to the sub-office registrars and the remaining amount to the franking authority.

The Ins and Outs of Obtaining a China Apostille

In an era of global mobility, the need for cross-border document recognition is more prevalent than ever. If your plans involve studying, working, or engaging in legal transactions in China, understanding the apostille process is crucial. This blog post aims to provide a comprehensive guide on obtaining an apostille for documents destined for use in China.

What is an Apostille?

An apostille is a specialized certificate issued to verify the authenticity of a public document for international use. This streamlined form of certification, established under the Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents, facilitates the acceptance of documents in member countries, including China.

Eligible Documents

In China, the apostille process is typically administered by the Chinese Embassy or Consulate in the country where the document originated. Commonly apostilled documents include birth certificates, marriage certificates, academic transcripts, and notarized documents. However, requirements may vary, and it's essential to check with the Chinese authorities or the Chinese Embassy in your country for specific guidelines.

Step-by-Step Process

Verify Eligibility: Confirm whether your document is eligible for apostille. Certain documents, like private agreements, may not be eligible, and alternative authentication processes might be required.

Prepare Your Document: Ensure that your document is an original or a certified copy. If notarization is necessary, have it notarized by a licensed notary public.

Contact the Chinese Embassy or Consulate: Reach out to the Chinese Embassy or Consulate in your country to understand their specific requirements and procedures for apostille services.

Complete Necessary Forms: Fill out any required forms provided by the Chinese Embassy or Consulate. Include all relevant information and details about the document to be apostilled.

Submit Your Documents: Deliver your documents, along with the completed forms and any required fees, to the Chinese Embassy or Consulate. Some locations may allow for postal submission.

Payment of Fees: Be prepared to pay the fees associated with the apostille service. The cost may vary depending on the type of document and the processing time.

Wait for Processing: Apostille processing times can vary. Check with the Chinese Embassy or Consulate for an estimated timeline and inquire about any expedited services if needed.

Receive the Apostilled Document: Once the apostille process is complete, you will receive your document with the attached apostille certificate. This certificate validates the document's authenticity and ensures its recognition in China.

Navigating the China apostille process for documents destined for China requires careful attention to detail and adherence to the specific requirements outlined by the Chinese Embassy or Consulate. By following the prescribed steps and ensuring that your documents meet the necessary criteria, you can streamline the international recognition process and proceed confidently with your plans involving China. As the gateway to countless opportunities, China welcomes individuals and businesses with properly apostilled documents, ensuring a smoother transition across borders.

In conclusion, obtaining an apostille for documents bound for China is a vital step for anyone looking to engage in international activities in this dynamic and influential country. By understanding the process and partnering with the relevant authorities, individuals and businesses can ensure that their documents are officially recognized and accepted, opening doors to a myriad of possibilities in the diverse landscape of China.

CELEBRATION OF WORLD POST DAY AND NATIONAL POSTAL WEEK 2023 FROM

09TH OCTOBER, 2023 TO 13TH OCTOBER 2023: Office of the Chief Postmaster General, Maharashtra Circle, Mumbai – 400 001

The World Post Day marks the Anniversary of the establishment of Universal Postal Union, headquarter at Bern and is held on 09th October of every year. Department of Posts is celebrating National Postal Week 2023 from 09th October, 2023 to 13th October, 2023.

India Post, a vital part of the country's communication and logistics infrastructure, has undergone significant changes over time. From its inception in 1854 during British rule to its

present role as a multifaceted postal, financial, and retail service provider, India Post has adapted to the evolving needs of the nation.

The late 20th century witnessed a paradigm shift with the advent of electronic communication. To stay relevant, India Post embraced technological changes, introducing services like speed post and express parcel post. These innovations aimed to provide faster and more efficient postal solutions, catering to the changing demands of a rapidly modernizing society.

A purchaser in good faith of the personal property sold to satisfy a lien as provided for in this chapter takes the property free of any rights of persons against whom the lien was valid and free of any rights of a secured creditor, despite noncompliance by the owner with the requirements of this section. 11. In the event of a sale under this section, the owner may satisfy the lien for the proceeds of the sale, subject to the rights of any prior lien holder; the lien rights of the prior lien holder are automatically transferred to the proceeds of the sale; if the sale is made in good faith and is conducted in a reasonable manner, the owner shall not be subject to any surcharge for a deficiency in the amount of a prior secured lien, but shall hold the balance, if any, for delivery to the occupant, lien holder, or other person in interest; if the occupant, lien holder, or other person in interest does not claim the balance of the proceeds within one year of the date of sale, it shall become the property of the Utah state treasurer as unclaimed property with no further claim against the owner. 12. If the requirements of this chapter are not satisfied, if the sale of the personal property is not in conformity with the notice of sale, or if there is a willful violation of this chapter, nothing in this section affects the rights and liabilities of the owner, occupant, or any other person. Creditors come in two basic types: secured and unsecured. Although the amount of the debt may be the same, the remedies available to the creditor are very different. Secured creditors have a claim against a specific asset, whereas unsecured creditors do not. Creditors can be unsecured or secured. An unsecured, or general, creditor has a general claim against a debtor this claim is not secured by any particular asset of the debtor. An unsecured creditor has the weakest claim, which may go unpaid in a bankruptcy proceeding. However, an unsecured creditor may become a secured creditor after a lawsuit and judgment. A secured creditor, who has an interest (referred to as a lien) on a particular asset, can use the court system to seize the asset and to satisfy the debt. This clearly presents a significant risk for the business owner.

Liens Enable Creditors to Assert Rights Over Property

Unless the debtor is prudent and has taken measures to safeguard his assets, there is a risk that the creditors can seize assets and take your wealth. In order to know if your assets are at risk, it is imperative that you have an understanding of the different types of liens you may encounter as a small business owner: • Consensual • Purchase-Money Security Liens • Non-Purchase-Money Security Liens • Statutory • Mechanic’s Liens Tax Liens • Judgment

Consensual Liens Are Voluntary

As the name implies, consensual liens are those to which you voluntarily consent, as a result of a loan or other advance of credit. The property purchased secures the buyer’s obligation to pay for the property. One common example is the residential mortgage: a home buyer consents to a bank taking a security interest in the home when a mortgage is obtained. Similarly, a security interest also is created when a car dealer arranges for financing for a car buyer.

There are two broad classes of consensual liens: • Purchase-Money Security Interest Liens: Here, the creditor extends credit to the debtor specifically for the purchase of the property that secures the debt. Examples include a first mortgage on a home, a car loan, and situations in which the seller finances the purchase of property, such as furniture, through a credit agreement. • Non-Purchase-Money Security Interest Liens: Here, the debtor puts up property he or she already owns as collateral for a loan. The loan proceeds are then used to pay expenses (or perhaps to buy other property). Examples include a second mortgage (or refinancing of a mortgage) on a home or a loan used to pay operating expenses with previously owned office equipment put up as collateral. Both types of consensual liens are usually non-possessory. This means that the creditor does not take or retain possession of the property; rather, the debtor takes, or retains, possession of the property. However, it’s possible for either type of consensual lien to be possessory. In that case, the creditor takes possession of the collateral. A loan from a pawnbroker, for example, usually would create a possessory, non-purchase-money security interest lien in the collateral. While this seems very straightforward, the type of debt can have a large impact on the creditor’s rights if a debtor defaults. The rules vary from state to state, but characteristics of a debt are critical to understand if assets are to be protected. Issues include: • Who is holding the property that secures the debt: the debtor or the creditor? In a car loan, the debtor has possession of the property. When a loan is obtained from a pawnshop, the creditor has possession of the property securing the loan. • Was the debt incurred to purchase property or not? For example, a first mortgage loan is a purchase money loan since the proceeds were used to purchase a residence. In contrast, a refinancing loan is not a purchase money loan. The homeowner already owned the property. • What is the nature of the property to which the lien is attached? This is often the essential inquiry when it comes to asset protection. The states, as well as the federal government, have a wide variety of laws relating to what assets are protected from creditors and how they are protected. The primary mechanism for protecting selected assets is a concept called exemptions. In essence, the law may declare that certain property simply cannot be seized by a creditor.

Statutory and Judgment Liens Arise by Operation of Law

In addition to consensual liens, there are many different types of liens that creditors can use to get at your assets to satisfy a debt. In certain circumstances, creditors obtain security interests by the operation of state (or federal) laws. These liens include: • Mechanic’s Liens: This type of lien arises when a contractor or mechanic performs work on property and is not paid. Examples include a contractor who installs a furnace in a home, or an auto mechanic who performs repairs to a car. This lien is a security interest in the property. If the owner tries to sell the property, the debtor will have a secured interest in the portion of the proceeds needed to pay the debt. In addition, having a mechanic’s lien can delay or prevent the sale of real property until debt is satisfied and the lien released. • Tax Liens. This type of lien is placed against property by the local, state or federal government, as authorized by statute, for delinquent taxes, including property, income and estate taxes.

Judgment Liens Arise As a Result of a Lawsuit

Of the three types of liens (consensual, statutory and judgment,) the judgment lien is the most dangerous form, but one which the informed business owner may be able to eliminate. A judicial lien is created when a court grants a creditor an interest in the debtor’s property, after a court judgment. Judgment liens can arise in a wide variety of circumstances basically, any incident that can land you in court can end up generating a judgment lien.

For example, if you are driving negligently and injure someone in an accident, the injured person may to sue for damages. To the extent that your insurance doesn’t cover the judgment, a judicial lien may be placed against your property to secure payment of the claim to the injured party. A plaintiff who obtains a monetary judgment is termed a “judgment creditor.” The defendant becomes a “judgment debtor.” The judgment in the lawsuit provides the basis for the lien. If the debt is not paid, the judgment creditor can then seek to enforce (or execute) the judgment. This can be accomplished by garnishing wages, seizing a bank account, or placing a lien against the debtor’s property. The lien is the first step by the judgment creditor in a process that will culminate in a sale of the attached property, to satisfy the judgment debt.

Any lien placed on the defendant’s assets as a result of a court judgment is known as a judgment lien. If a lien were placed on a home, the judgment creditor could then seek to foreclose on the property, in the same way a mortgage holder such as a bank could foreclose if it were not paid. In this section, the term “judgment lien” is used in its strictest sense: a lien attributed to a court judgment, where the court judgment itself is the basis for the lien.

An example would be a plaintiff who is awarded a monetary judgment against a defendant in a lawsuit based on negligence, and who then is granted an order of attachment against the debtor’s property. In contrast, this definition excludes a judgment based on a pre-existing lien (i.e., a prior consensual lien or statutory lien). Thus, for example, this definition would exclude a judgment in a mortgage foreclosure. This distinction is critically important in discerning what types of liens against exempt property can be eliminated.

Notice to Perform

In real estate, a notice to perform is a document that sets up a contract with detailed expectations for either the buyer or the seller. If the expectations are not met, the party that sent the notice can cancel the real estate deal. The notice to perform serves two purposes—it gives the first party the chance to tell the other that there is an issue, and the second a chance to fix it before the deal is canceled. A notice to perform is a real estate clause or contract that requires parties to act by a set date. In many instances, you must give the notice to perform before you can cancel a purchase contract. Either the buyer or the seller can issue a notice to perform. However, the two parties may approach the process with different goals. You aren’t required to send a notice to perform if a buyer or seller misses a deadline. A gentle reminder from your real estate agent might be appropriate, but it depends on your circumstances. A notice to perform is usually only used if one party wants to cancel a deal because their requests aren’t met.

Sellers might demand that buyers perform because they don’t want to drag out an escrow, only to find out the buyers were never going to close. In the case of a contingency release, the seller may be entitled to the buyer’s earnest money deposit if the buyer later cancels the transaction after releasing all contingencies. Real estate deals can be full of contingencies. Some common ones are: • A loan contingency so the seller can cancel the deal if the buyer does not secure a loan in time.\ • An appraisal contingency so the buyer can cancel if the home appraises for less than the price in the contract. • An inspection contingency that allows the buyer to back out of the deal if the inspector finds major issues. • The seller and buyer might need certain disclosures and reports. • The buyer may want the house they own to sell before they complete the purchase of another.

Why Use a Notice to Buyer to Perform?

Buyers may not be aware of all the contractual agreements they’re making when they sign a purchase agreement. However, before a seller can cancel a contract due to the buyer’s failure to do any of these things, the seller must send the buyer a notice demanding that the buyer perform. Some common seller concerns are: • The buyer hasn’t made an earnest money deposit. • The seller might want to increase the earnest money deposit. • The buyer needs to submit a loan preapproval or prequalification letter. • The seller might want to see proof of funds to close escrow. • The seller might want the buyer to sign and return disclosures and reports by a specific date. • The seller wants the buyer to provide evidence that their current home is in escrow.
