    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Who qualifies for a bank statement loan?

    +

    Self-employed borrowers, 1099 contractors, and business owners with at least 2 years of self-employment whose tax returns don't reflect their true cash flow. We use bank deposits to calculate income.

    How is income calculated on a bank statement loan?

    +

    We total qualifying deposits over 12 or 24 months and apply an expense factor (typically 10%–50% depending on business type) to arrive at a monthly qualifying income figure.

    What's the minimum down payment?

    +

    10% with strong credit and reserves; most borrowers put down 10%–20%. Investment properties typically require 20%–25%.

    Are bank statement loans more expensive?

    +

    Rates run slightly above conventional financing because they're non-QM, but they're competitive within the bank statement market — especially for borrowers with strong credit and reserves.
