Yes, lenders will need full supporting documentation showing cash to close and/or savings in the bank necessary for qualifying on whichever loan program you are working with. Expect lenders to require at least two months of bank statements on any monthly account, and most recent last two quarters on any quarterly accounts same goes for annual accounts. Do make sure to include the full statement for each account e.g. all pages, all schedules even if the pages are blank. A Bank/asset statement to a mortgage lender is just that- the entire statement. Additionally, pictures of bank statements taken for example with a smart phone will not work.
