Quick Answer

Self-employed investor programs qualify your deal using 1099s, K-1s, P&L statements, or bank deposits instead of a standard two-year tax return history — built around how business owners actually get paid.

Program Highlights

Built around how you actually get paid.

Flexibility

3 Documentation Paths

1099-only, P&L-only, or bank statement qualification — we pick whichever produces the strongest number for your deal.

Taxes

Zero W-2s Required

None of our self-employed programs require a W-2 or a standard two-year single-employer income history.

Structure

Multiple Income Streams Welcome

Several businesses, 1099 contracts, or K-1 partnerships can all be considered together, not evaluated in isolation.

Who This Program Fits

Business owners with multiple income streams, 1099 contractors, consultants, and investors whose K-1s or commingled accounts make a clean conventional file hard to document.

What You'll Typically Need

FAQ

Self-employed investor questions.

I have multiple businesses and income streams — can you still qualify me?

Yes, that's exactly what these programs are built for — we combine or select the documentation path that produces the strongest qualifying number.

What if my K-1 shows a loss because of depreciation or write-offs?

We can often work around paper losses using bank statement or asset-based qualification instead of the K-1 figure alone.

Do I need two years of tax returns?

Not necessarily — 1099-only and P&L-only programs can skip tax returns for the income calculation entirely.

Is this more expensive than a conventional loan?

Pricing is typically somewhat higher to reflect the alternative documentation, but for most self-employed investors it's the only path to the loan amount that matches real income.
