Buying a home in DeWitt County when you're self-employed comes down to one thing: showing your true income. Bank statement loans do exactly that, averaging your monthly deposits to set your qualifying income. Down payments often start around 10%, with stronger pricing at 15–20%. We serve self-employed buyers from the county seat of Cuero to communities across DeWitt County.

620+ credit and 10%%+ down
Roughly 50%% of monthly deposits counted as income
P&L-only loan options
Some self-employed borrowers qualify with a CPA-prepared profit-and-loss statement, sometimes paired with a couple months of statements. A P&L loan is another non-QM path when your deposits alone don't capture the whole picture.
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.
Realtors: qualify on your commissions
Agents deduct heavily — mileage, marketing, MLS dues, splits — so the net income a conventional lender sees rarely reflects real earnings. Bank statement loans count your commission deposits, and 1099 loans count 90-100% of your gross 1099 — two clean paths to the home you've been selling everyone else.
A 1099 loan qualifies contractors and gig workers using their 1099 forms instead of tax returns, often counting 90–100% of gross 1099 earnings. It's a great fit if most of your income comes on 1099s.
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.
Can I buy an investment property?
Yes. Bank statement and DSCR loans can finance primary homes, second homes, and investment properties. Note Texas caps cash-out refinances on a primary residence at 80% of value.
What DSCR ratio do lenders want?
A DSCR of 1.0 means rent covers the full payment; many lenders price best at 1.25 or higher. Some programs allow ratios below 1.0 with stronger down payments and reserves.
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 is a DSCR loan for investors?
A DSCR loan qualifies real estate investors on a property's rental cash flow instead of personal income — no tax returns or pay stubs. It's ideal for rentals, cash-out refinances, and growing a portfolio.
