Qualify on deposits, not tax returns, in Cochran County
If you run a business, contract, or freelance in Cochran County, a conventional lender's reliance on tax returns can work against you. Bank statement loans count your actual cash flow — often 50% of business deposits or 100% of personal — to get you qualified. Real estate investors can use DSCR loans that qualify on a property's rental cash flow alone. We serve self-employed buyers from the county seat of Morton to communities across Cochran County.
Who qualifies in Cochran 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.
Your write-offs stop working against you
The deductions that lower your tax bill also lower the income a conventional lender sees — which is why so many business owners get under-qualified or denied. A bank-statement loan flips that: your real deposits, not your write-off-reduced taxable income, drive your approval.
12 vs. 24 months of statements
Lenders accept either 12 or 24 months of personal or business statements. Twelve months gets you to the finish line faster, while 24 months smooths out seasonal swings and often produces a higher, more defensible qualifying income.
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.
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.
What is a bank statement loan?
It's a mortgage that qualifies self-employed borrowers on 12–24 months of bank deposits instead of tax returns. If your write-offs make your taxable income look low, this counts your real cash flow instead.
How much of my deposits count as income?
Typically 100% of personal-account deposits, or about 50% of business-account deposits, sometimes adjusted by a CPA expense letter. Roughly $20,000/month in business deposits can support about a $350,000 home.
Can I close a DSCR loan in my LLC's name?
Yes — DSCR loans commonly close in an LLC or other entity, which many investors prefer for liability separation. The property qualifies on its rent versus its full payment (PITIA), not your personal income.
What about jumbo loans for the self-employed?
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.
