Chinese Homebuyers Must Prove Source of Funds

For homes valued at 5 million yuan or more, banks will require homebuyers show where their money came from. This will throw a wrench in down payment loans from various sources. Banks are also strengthening checks of income and cash, creating a blacklist for fraudulent borrowers who put fake information on applications. Violators will be banned from ever borrowing from any bank ever again.
