Benefits and Useful Information

Income Documentation That Fits Your Business

Traditional tax returns do not always tell the full story for self employed clients. Bank statement, 1099, and profit and loss options can highlight actual cash flow and support approval when write offs reduce taxable income. Mike Wright reviews your revenue patterns, builds a documentation plan, and presents a clear file so lenders see strength in the way you earn.

Clarity on Write Offs and True Earning Power

Many owners lower taxable income through legitimate expenses. Lenders want a realistic picture of repayment ability. Mike Wright explains how underwriters view add backs, business expenses, and year to date trends, then prepares a summary that aligns with guidelines. You will understand how each item affects qualifying income and how to present numbers that support your goals.

Stronger Files Through Reserves and Stability

Cash reserves, steady deposits, and clean statements improve approval strength and pricing. Mike Wright helps you season funds, source large deposits, and organize accounts so the paper trail is clear. With stable income patterns and documented reserves, your application shows lower risk and puts you in a better position for terms that fit your budget and timeline.

Loan Structures That Match Your Plan

Self employed borrowers often care about cash flow and flexibility. Conventional and non agency options can offer fixed terms or adjustable choices, sometimes with interest only features for the early period. Mike Wright models scenarios that compare payment, total interest, and equity growth. You will see which structure supports your business cycle and long term plans.

Smooth Process and Document Checklist

A prepared file moves faster. Mike Wright gives you a tailored checklist for bank statements, business returns if needed, year to date profit and loss, and verification letters where appropriate. He reviews for completeness and flags gaps before submission. With organized documents and clear expectations, you can focus on property decisions while the loan progresses on schedule.

Pathways to Lower Long Term Costs

What is a self employed mortgage

It is a home loan designed to evaluate income for business owners, freelancers, and independent contractors. Instead of relying only on traditional tax returns, lenders can consider bank statements, 1099 forms, and profit and loss statements to understand cash flow. The goal is a fair view of your ability to repay based on how you actually earn.

Who counts as self employed for mortgage purposes

You are generally self employed if you own a business, work as an independent contractor, or receive most income on a 1099. Many lenders look for a two year history, and some will review one year with strong compensating factors. Mike Wright confirms guideline fit and prepares a file that reflects your full earning picture.

How is income calculated for self employed borrowers

Underwriters review trends, seasonality, and the stability of deposits. They may average income over a period and consider eligible add backs. For bank statement options, they apply a business expense factor to deposits. Mike Wright explains the method your lender will use and provides side by side estimates so you know what to expect before you apply.

What documents will I need

Expect identification, recent personal and business bank statements, 1099s if applicable, a year to date profit and loss, and prior year returns when required. You may also provide business licenses, a CPA letter, and statements that verify reserves. Mike Wright builds a checklist and reviews everything for completeness to support a smooth approval.

What is a bank statement mortgage

It is a program that uses business or personal bank statements to document income rather than relying on tax returns. Lenders review deposits over a set period to determine qualifying income. This can help when write offs lower taxable income. Mike Wright confirms the right statement period and expense factor for your profile and goals.

Can I qualify if my tax returns show low income

Many self employed borrowers can still qualify through programs that look at cash flow instead of adjusted taxable income. Bank statement, 1099, or profit and loss options may help when returns reflect heavy write offs. Mike Wright compares available paths, explains tradeoffs, and shows how each choice affects payment, pricing, and cash to close.

 

How long do I need to be in business

Many lenders prefer two years in business. Some may consider one year when income is strong and your overall profile is stable. Mike Wright reviews your timeline, evaluates compensating strengths such as reserves and credit, and recommends lenders whose guidelines align with your history and goals.
