Bank Statement Loans

Designed for self-employed individuals or business owners who may not have the traditional income documentation required for a conventional loan.

  • Instead of relying on W-2s or tax returns, lenders use the borrower's bank statements to verify income.

  • We will request 12 or 24 months of personal or business bank statements to assess your cash flow and financial stability.

  • These loans offer flexibility for those with irregular income streams, allowing them to qualify based on actual deposits rather than taxable income.

  • This comes with higher interest rates and larger down payment requirements due to the increased risk preceived.

  • Borrowers should ensure their bank statements reflect consistent and sufficient deposits to meet the lender's criteria. Bank statement loans provide a valuable alternative for self-employed individuals seeking home financing without traditional income documentation.
