Being self-employed doesn't mean you can't get a great mortgage. You just need a broker who knows the right loan products — not a bank that only understands W-2s.
Banks rely on W-2 income. Most self-employed borrowers write off expenses legally — which makes taxable income look lower than it really is. We use loan products built for how you actually earn.
We use 12–24 months of bank statements to calculate your income — not your tax returns. Perfect if write-offs reduce your taxable income significantly.
