Self-employed home loans across Washington County

Business owners and 1099 earners in Washington County have options beyond the conventional box. Bank statement, 1099, and P&L loan programs qualify you on real income — your deposits — so write-offs don't sink your application. Real estate investors can use DSCR loans that qualify on a property's rental cash flow alone. From Brenham to the surrounding towns, we help Washington County business owners qualify on their deposits.

Who qualifies in Washington County

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.

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.

Realtors: qualify on your commissions

Agents deduct heavily — mileage, marketing, MLS dues, splits — so the net income a conventional lender sees rarely reflects real earnings. Bank statement loans count your commission deposits, and 1099 loans count 90-100% of your gross 1099 — two clean paths to the home you've been selling everyone else.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

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.

What about jumbo loans for the self-employed?

Bank statement jumbo programs lend above the conforming limit ($832,750 in most Texas counties for 2026) using deposit-based income — expect larger down payments and deeper reserves than smaller loans.

Can I buy an investment property?

Yes. Bank statement and DSCR loans can finance primary homes, second homes, and investment properties. Note Texas caps cash-out refinances on a primary residence at 80% of value.

I was denied a conventional mortgage — now what?

Get the written denial reason first. If it's income or DTI related, your write-offs were probably the culprit, and a bank statement, 1099, P&L, or DSCR loan may approve the same file on real cash flow.

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.
