Jumbo loans without tax returns
Above the conforming limit — $832,750 in most Texas counties for 2026 — bank statement jumbo programs keep working. Expect larger down payments and deeper reserves than smaller loans, but the core trade holds: your deposits, not your post-write-off taxable income, set your buying power.
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.
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.
Yes — you can refinance to lower your rate or take cash out, subject to Texas's 80% cash-out limit on a primary residence.
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 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 finance a barndominium with a non-QM loan in Texas?
Texas is one of the friendliest barndo lending markets anywhere. Portfolio and non-QM lenders finance completed barndominiums when comparable sales support the appraisal; construction usually runs through a construction-to-permanent loan.
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.
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.
