Business owners and 1099 earners in Castro County have options beyond the conventional box. Bank statement, 1099, and P&L loan programs qualify you on real income — your deposits — so write-offs don't sink your application. A CPA-prepared profit-and-loss statement can stand in when deposits don't tell the whole story. We serve self-employed buyers from the county seat of Dimmitt to communities across Castro County.
Who qualifies in Castro County
Self-employed 2+ years (1–2 years may work with experience)
12–24 months of bank statements
620+ credit and 10%%+ down
Roughly 50%% of monthly deposits counted as income
Primary, second home, or investment
These loans aren't just for primary residences — second homes and investment properties qualify too. Pair a bank-statement loan for your own home with a DSCR loan for rentals and you can keep growing without ever showing a tax return.
1099 loans for contractors and gig workers
If most of your income arrives on 1099s, a 1099 loan may beat a bank-statement loan — lenders can count roughly 90–100% of your gross 1099 earnings, rather than discounting business deposits by half. It's built for freelancers, consultants, and independent contractors.
Close your rental in an LLC
DSCR loans commonly close in an entity's name, which is why investors love them: liability separation, no personal income docs, and qualification that's just the property's rent divided by its full payment (PITIA). A ratio of 1.0 covers the payment; 1.25+ earns the best pricing.
Bank statement jumbo programs lend above the conforming limit ($832,750 in most Texas counties for 2026) using deposit-based income — expect larger down payments and deeper reserves than smaller loans.
Will moving money between my accounts hurt my application?
It can muddy the file. Transfers between your own accounts get excluded so they aren't double-counted, and frequent overdrafts or NSFs are red flags. Keep deposits clean and consistent in the months before applying.
Do I need cash reserves?
Usually yes — many non-QM programs require about 3 to 12 months of PITI (principal, interest, taxes, insurance) in reserves, with larger loans requiring more.
Should I use 12 or 24 months of statements?
Both are accepted. Twelve months is faster; 24 months usually produces a more accurate, stronger income figure — especially if your business is seasonal or your monthly deposits swing up and down.
What documents will I need?
Generally 12–24 months of statements, proof of self-employment (license, incorporation docs, or a CPA letter), and asset statements for your down payment and reserves.
Are bank statement loan rates higher?
Usually somewhat higher (often about 0.5%–2% over conventional) because they don't fit standard guidelines. There's no monthly PMI, and the real comparison is to being denied conventionally — many borrowers refinance later.
