Limestone 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. A CPA-prepared profit-and-loss statement can stand in when deposits don't tell the whole story. From Groesbeck to the surrounding towns, we help Limestone County business owners qualify on their deposits.

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.
Gig income counts — document it right
Uber, DoorDash, Instacart, freelance platforms — lenders aggregate it all as self-employment income. Route payouts into one account, keep your 1099s, and show about two years of history. Bank statement and 1099 loans capture what the apps actually paid you, not what survived your mileage deduction.
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.
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.
Do bank statement loans work for real estate agents?
They're one of the best fits. Commission deposits qualify you, and 24 months of statements smooths seasonal swings. If your brokerage 1099s your gross commissions, a 1099 loan counting 90-100% of gross may be even stronger.
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.
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.
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.
What is a 1099 loan and how is it different?
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.
