Bank Statement Loan Programs for Self-Employed Borrowers

There are 15 million Americans that are self-employed. Frequently, self-employed owned businesses have much more aggressive tax strategies than what is allowed W-2 employees. The result is that self-employed borrowers, often are unable to document their income through tax returns, but can document their income through deposits into their personal or business bank statements. While Non-Qualified and Non-Agency loan programs are constantly evolving please reference the below guidelines to assist you in determining if a Bank Statement Loan program is right for you:
