The bank statement loan program is the most common sought solution for self-employed individuals trying to obtain a mortgage. We understand that self-employed individuals experience difficulties getting approved for a mortgage due to things like write offs and other “underwriting obstacles.”
With the bank statement loan program, we’re looking at bank statements to analyze cashflow to cover the mortgage payment vs tax returns. We won’t have to turn in tax returns, K1’s, etc.
Typically, we’ll use 12-24 months of bank statements for our income analysis. Being self employed is a necessity for this program, as it is tailored for truly self-employed individuals.
Credit score will play a role in the down payment position (loan to value) that the applicant will need to follow. 10% down is the industry standard minimum for down payment on bank statement mortgage programs.
Two years self-employed history is also an industry standard that most of the bank statement mortgage lenders require.
