Florida Mortgage Experts

Self-Employed Mortgage in Florida

Business owner? Freelancer? 1099 contractor? Tax returns don't show your real income? We have loan programs built specifically for you.

The self-employed mortgage problem

Self-employed borrowers often can't qualify for traditional mortgages because tax return income is reduced by legitimate business deductions. A business owner making $150,000 might show $60,000 on their return after write-offs. Traditional lenders use the $60,000 — we use the $150,000.

Our self-employed loan programs

  • Bank statement loans — 12-24 months of bank deposits replace tax returns
  • 1099 income programs — for contractors with 1099 income instead of W-2s
  • Asset depletion loans — use your investment portfolio or savings as income
  • P&L statement loans — profit and loss statement prepared by a CPA
  • Conventional with two years of returns — if your return income is sufficient

What you'll need

  • 12-24 months of business or personal bank statements
  • Business license or CPA letter confirming self-employment
  • 2 months of personal bank statements for assets/reserves
  • Credit score 660+ (bank statement) or 620+ (conventional with returns)
