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.
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.
Texas's 80% cash-out rule
Texas homestead law caps cash-out refinances on a primary residence at 80% of the home's value — you must keep at least 20% equity. It applies to every loan type, including bank-statement loans, so plan your cash-out around that ceiling.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
