if i am buying a house in my name alone, can my boyfriend give me a cashier's check for half the cost of the house without any trouble from the mortgage lender or IRS? can we draw it up as a personal loan from him to me or does it even matter?
Hi arkrx,
Rather than showing it as a personal loan, your boyfriend can issue a gift letter to you. You can show the gift letter to the lender and he won't object to the money.
Thanks
