Bank statement loans are a flexible mortgage option designed for self-employed individuals or business owners who may not have traditional income documentation like W-2s or tax returns. Instead, these loans rely on an analysis of your personal or business bank statements to verify income and determine eligibility.
These loans are specifically tailored for self-employed borrowers whose income might not fit the traditional mold but is still consistent and reliable. With flexible qualification standards, bank statement loans make it possible to achieve homeownership or refinance without the hurdles of conventional loan programs.
Income Verification via Bank Statements: Use 12–24 months of personal or business bank statements instead of traditional income documents.
No Tax Returns or W-2s Required: Ideal for self-employed individuals or business owners with variable income.
Flexible Loan Terms: Available for primary residences, second homes, and investment properties, with fixed or adjustable-rate options.
Bank Statement Analysis: Lenders review 12–24 months of bank statements to calculate your average monthly income.
Loan-to-Value Ratio (LTV): Most programs allow up to 90% LTV, meaning you may only need a 10% down payment.
Debt-to-Income Ratio (DTI): While flexible, lenders often prefer a DTI of 43% or lower.
Bank statement loans are ideal for:
Self-employed individuals or business owners with non-traditional income.
Borrowers with solid credit profiles but inconsistent or hard-to-document earnings.
Individuals who want to purchase or refinance a primary residence, vacation home, or investment property.
