Community ManagerHow we use Dropbox
We love to share how our Community members use Dropbox, and we thought it would be fun to tell you how some Dropboxers use it too! So why not start at home, with us, your Community team, so up first ...

When we bought our apartment, we kept all our documents in a Dropbox folder (I'll never forget this 'House Hunting Main Folder', because I probably consulted 1000+ times in a couple of months).
Initially, we only had our personal files in the folder: payslips, bank account extracts, phone bills, copies of passports & IDs, bank statements, etc.
Because we were buying an apartment in a foreign country, we had to translate all our payslips from before, and we had many bank accounts, so it was a 🔥 hot 🔥 mess.
We had to be super reactive for every stage (bidding war, solicitor deadlines, etc), so it was a life savior to have all the docs available in one single place, accessible anywhere (& on mobile), especially when the bank was asking for them for the 7th time 😅
As the process went on, we had more and more docs to keep track of: price & mortgage simulation that we did on Excel, contracts that we had to sign, mortgage requests & approvals, etc.
It is quite hard to adult, but honestly being able to keep track of all our files gave me so much peace of mind that it avoided a bunch of massive panic moments - so Dropbox definitely made it easier 😊

Community ManagerYeah I was thinking exactly that at one point - if it's this intense for renting, imagine if we were buying! But I definitely feel like I have a better idea of how to stay organised enough to keep it all rolling whenever we get around to that stage. Here's to making being a grown up easier! 😂
