Profit & Loss Statement Loans in Woodland
Who prepares the P&L statement for this loan?
It must be prepared and signed by a licensed CPA. Self-prepared statements are not accepted by non-QM lenders.
01
Woodland sits at the edge of Sacramento's growth corridor. Self-employed buyers here compete against W-2 borrowers who qualify easily on paper.
A P&L loan cuts through that disadvantage. Your CPA prepares a profit and loss statement — lenders use that instead of tax returns.

P&L loans are non-QM. That means your bank won't offer them. You need a broker with access to wholesale non-QM lenders.
We work with 200+ lenders at SRK CAPITAL. Several specialize in P&L programs with competitive pricing for California self-employed borrowers.
04
The most common mistake I see: borrowers bring a P&L their accountant threw together in a week. Lenders scrutinize these hard.
Your CPA needs to be licensed and ideally familiar with non-QM requirements. A well-structured P&L can make or break the approval.
05
Bank statement loans use 12–24 months of deposits to calculate income. P&L loans use your accountant's summary instead.
If your deposits are inconsistent but your business is profitable, the P&L route often produces a higher qualifying income than bank statements would.
06
Woodland has a strong agricultural and small-business economy. Many local business owners write off aggressively — which kills conventional qualification.
A P&L loan sidesteps that problem. Lenders look at gross profit, not net taxable income. That's a real edge for Yolo County business owners.
