If two or more people own a piece of property together, they may be asked to provide documentation called proof of joint ownership. This simply means that they need to show evidence that both individuals own the home, vehicle, plot of land, etc. Depending on what type of property it is, acceptable documents include:
- Mortgage statements
- Bank statements
- Credit card statements
- Residential leasing agreements
- Property tax statements
- Current utility bills
- Vehicle titles
- Vehicle registration
However, any document used to show proof of joint ownership must have been issued in the last 6 months. It must also show details on the property (address, license plate number, etc.) and both owners’ full, legal names.
