Why Self-Employed Borrowers Get Turned Down

And why that doesn't have to be the end of the story.

1

Great tax strategy, bad loan app

Write-offs save you money at tax time but make your income look too low to qualify conventionally.

2

Banks only look at 1040s

Traditional lenders use net taxable income. Your actual cash flow doesn't factor in.

3

We use your deposits instead

12–24 months of bank statements show what you actually earn. That's what we qualify you on.
