Qualify on deposits, not tax returns, in Lamar County

If you've been told you 'make too much to qualify on paper' in Lamar County, a bank statement loan is likely your answer.

Whether your business is in Paris or elsewhere in Lamar County, we can turn your deposits into buying power.

Non-warrantable condos: when the building is the problem

Sometimes you qualify and the condo doesn't — too many rentals in the project, pending litigation, one owner holding too many units. Conventional lenders walk away; non-QM lenders underwrite the building on its merits. If a condo deal died over 'warrantability,' there's usually still a loan for it.

How much you'll put down

Most bank-statement programs start around 10% down, with better pricing at 15–20%+. If your credit or deposit history is on the lighter side, a larger down payment is often the lever that gets you approved.

Reserves: what lenders want to see

Non-QM programs typically want about 3 to 12 months of PITI — your full monthly payment — sitting in reserves, with larger loans requiring more. Strong reserves can offset a lower score or a thinner deposit history.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an asset depletion loan?

A non-QM program that converts verified liquid assets into monthly qualifying income — commonly assets divided over a set number of months. It suits retirees, business sellers, and high-net-worth borrowers without paychecks.

How much down payment do I need?

Most bank statement programs start around 10%, with stronger pricing at 15–20%+. A larger down payment can offset a lower credit score or thinner deposit history.

What is a P&L loan?

A profit-and-loss loan lets you qualify using a CPA-prepared P&L statement, sometimes with fewer bank statements. It's another non-QM path when bank-statement deposits alone don't tell the full story.

Do I need tax returns or W-2s?

No. Income is verified from your deposits (or 1099s/P&L), so no tax returns or W-2s are required to document income — just proof of self-employment and consistent statements.

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.
