What is a Bank Statement Loan?
A bank statement program is a home loan program that uses bank statements to calculate a borrower’s income. This is an alternative documentation loan type instead of using tax returns and W-2s in the qualification process. These loans are for self-employed borrowers who typically have substantial tax write-offs that make it challenging to demonstrate the necessary income to prove their ability to repay the loan. The bank statement loan programs use either personal or business bank statements to qualify borrowers.
Can a Self-Employed person get a mortgage?
Yes, a self-employed borrower can get a mortgage loan using our industry leading non-QM mortgage programs. Each self-employed borrower will be assessed individually to determine if they qualify for a home loan. Credit scores, income / profits, and other factors will determine the appropriate loan type. Given a self-employed borrower’s unique financial situation, alternative documentation may be needed to calculate a borrower’s income. Our bank statement loan program is designed to help self-employed borrowers, small business owners, and entrepreneurs qualify for a mortgage.
