Most of those earners write off expenses heavily. That kills their tax return income — and tanks a conventional approval.

You'll need 12 to 24 months of bank statements. Lenders use deposits to calculate income — not your Schedule C.
Most lenders want a 620+ credit score and 10-20% down. Rates vary by borrower profile and market conditions.
Bank statement loans are Non-QM products. Most retail banks won't touch them — you need a wholesale lender.
We work with 200+ wholesale lenders at SRK CAPITAL. That means more programs, more flexibility, and real competition on pricing.
The most common mistake: mixing personal and business deposits in one account. Lenders will count everything — then discount it.
Separate your accounts before you apply. Clean business-only statements get you the strongest income calculation possible.
A 1099 loan works if most of your income comes from contract work. Bank statement loans work better for business owners with mixed deposit sources.

Visalia's self-employed base spans ag contractors, equipment operators, and retail owners. Many show low net income on paper.

Most lenders want at least two years. Some allow one year with strong deposits and a solid credit profile.
Farm deposits can qualify if they're consistent and documented in your bank statements. Seasonal patterns require explanation.
Lenders average your monthly deposits. Then they apply an expense ratio — typically 50% for personal, less for business.
Yes. Non-QM rates run higher than conventional. Rates vary by borrower profile and market conditions.
You can, but a DSCR loan often works better for rentals. Bank statement loans suit primary and second homes best.
