Self-employed home loans across Houston County

Houston County is full of entrepreneurs whose tax returns understate what they really earn. A bank statement mortgage fixes that by underwriting your deposits, not your write-off-reduced taxable income. Many borrowers buy now and refinance into a conventional loan once their tax picture strengthens. Our specialists work with self-employed borrowers throughout Houston County, including Crockett and nearby areas.

Denied? The documentation was wrong, not the income

Most self-employed denials trace to one cause: the underwriter used post-write-off taxable income. The same file re-documented with 12-24 months of deposits, gross 1099s, or a CPA-prepared P&L often approves. Bring your denial letter — it tells the next loan officer exactly what to solve.

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.

Asset depletion: your portfolio is your paycheck

Retirees and business sellers can qualify by converting verified assets into income — commonly eligible assets divided over a set number of months. Cash counts fully, securities and retirement funds at a discount. No employment, no tax returns: the balance sheet does the talking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is a bank statement loan best for?

Business owners, 1099 contractors, realtors, gig workers, and freelancers whose tax write-offs shrink their reported income but whose deposits show strong, steady cash flow.

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.

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.

How long do I need to be self-employed?

Typically two years, though one year may work if you have prior experience in the same line of work. We'll help you find the program that fits your timeline.

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.

Can I get a mortgage with an ITIN instead of a Social Security number?

Yes. ITIN loans underwrite with your IRS-issued taxpayer ID, typically with 10-20% down and two years of work history. Self-employed ITIN borrowers can often document income with bank statements.
