Question 1

Who prepares the P&L statement for this loan?

Accepted Answer

A licensed CPA must prepare and certify it. A self-prepared statement won't satisfy lender requirements.

Question 2

Can I use a P&L loan on a rural property in Trinity County?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if the property appraises and meets lender guidelines. Rural appraisals can be tricky — verify early.

Question 3

How long does my business need to be operating?

Accepted Answer

Most non-QM lenders require at least two years of self-employment history. Some accept one year with strong documentation.

Question 4

How do P&L loan rates compare to conventional rates?

Accepted Answer

They run higher. Non-QM loans carry more lender risk, and that cost gets passed to the borrower. Rates vary by borrower profile and market conditions.

Question 5

Do I need to provide tax returns at all?

Accepted Answer

Most P&L-only programs don't require them. Some lenders may ask for business bank statements to cross-check the P&L figures.
