Self-employed individuals face unique challenges when it comes to obtaining a mortgage. Unlike traditional employees who receive a steady paycheck, self-employed individuals often have variable income streams that can fluctuate from year to year. This can make it difficult for lenders to assess their creditworthiness and determine their ability to repay the loan.
At Mortgages by Scott, we understand the challenges facing self-employed individuals. That’s why we offer a variety of mortgage solutions specifically designed to meet their unique needs. Our mortgage experts have decades of experience working with self-employed individuals and can help guide you through the process, from pre-approval to closing.
One of the biggest challenges facing self-employed individuals when applying for a mortgage is providing the necessary documentation to prove their income. Unlike traditional employees who can simply provide a W-2 form, self-employed individuals must typically provide several years of tax returns, business financial statements, and other documentation to prove their income.
At Mortgages by Scott, we understand that gathering all of this documentation can be a daunting task. That’s why we work with our clients to help them gather the necessary documentation and make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
At Mortgages by Scott, we offer a variety of mortgage solutions specifically designed for self-employed individuals. These include:
Bank statement loans are an alternative to traditional mortgages that allow self-employed individuals to qualify based on their bank statements rather than their tax returns. This can be a great option for self-employed individuals who may have variable income or who may not have been in business long enough to provide several years of tax returns.
Asset utilization loans are another option for self-employed individuals. These loans allow borrowers to use their assets, such as savings or investments, as income to qualify for the loan. This can be a good option for self-employed individuals who have significant assets but may not have a consistent income stream.
Non-QM loans are another option for self-employed individuals who may not qualify for traditional mortgages. These loans are designed for borrowers who don’t meet the strict qualification guidelines of traditional mortgages, such as those who have a high debt-to-income ratio or who have had credit issues in the past.
If you’re a self-employed individual and you’re ready to explore your mortgage options, Mortgages by Scott is here to help. Our experienced mortgage experts will work with you to determine the best financing solution for your unique needs and guide you through the entire process from pre-approval to closing.
