Designed for the Self-Employed
Traditional income paperwork doesn’t work for everyone. If you’re self-employed or have non-traditional income, a bank statement loan can offer a flexible alternative to conventional mortgage options.
Instead of relying on tax returns or W-2s, this loan type uses your bank statements to help verify income—making it a practical choice for business owners, freelancers, and independent contractors.
