Profit & Loss Statement Loans in Aliso Viejo
Your CPA prepares a 12 or 24-month P&L. Lenders use that income figure to qualify you — not your Schedule C.
Credit requirements vary by lender. Most want a 660 or higher. Down payment minimums typically start at 10 to 20 percent.
Big retail banks don't touch P&L loans. This is a non-QM product, which means you need a broker or non-QM lender.
We work with 200+ wholesale lenders. Several specialize in P&L programs with competitive rates for strong borrower profiles.
The P&L has to be clean and credible. Lenders scrutinize it hard. Sloppy numbers or inconsistencies will kill the file.
Pair a strong P&L with solid reserves and a healthy credit score. That combo gets you the best rate tier available.
Bank statement loans use 12 to 24 months of deposits to calculate income. P&L loans skip that math and use your CPA's number directly.
If your business has high revenue but high expenses, bank statements may show more income than your P&L. Run both scenarios.
