What Is a Self-Employed Loan?
A Self-Employed Loan is a mortgage designed for borrowers who earn income through their own business or contract work rather than a traditional salary.
Instead of requiring W-2s and pay stubs, we use bank deposits, business financials, or contractor statements to calculate your true income — allowing flexibility for entrepreneurs with variable earnings or strategic deductions.
This category includes:
●Bank Statement Loans
– Qualify with 12–24 months of bank deposits.
●P&L Loans
– Use a CPA-prepared profit and loss statement as income proof.
●1099 Loans
– Qualify using your 1099s from the last 1–2 years instead of tax returns.
●Asset Depletion Loans
– Qualify based on verified liquid assets instead of monthly income.
●DSCR Loans (for Investors)
– Use property cash flow instead of personal income.
Each one is designed to help self-employed borrowers buy or refinance without unnecessary red tape.
