Financing a Texas barndominium

Texas is the most barndo-friendly lending market in the country, but financing is still lender-by-lender: appraisals hinge on comparable metal-building home sales, which rural Texas counties actually have. Completed barndos fit portfolio and non-QM programs; new builds usually run through construction-to-permanent loans with a licensed builder.

A bridge to a conventional refinance

Many borrowers use a bank-statement loan to buy now, then refinance into a conventional loan later once two years of stronger tax returns are on file. You get the home today and keep the door open to a lower rate down the road.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

Can gig income from Uber or DoorDash qualify?

Yes — it's self-employment income. Lenders aggregate deposits or 1099s across platforms; about two years of history is the norm. Route payouts into one account so every dollar is verifiable.
