FAQ: Self-Employed Mortgage Calculator
1. Can self employed get a mortgage?
Yes. Non‑QM “bank‑statement” loans and some jumbo/conventional programs approve borrowers who prove income with 12–24 months of deposits instead of W‑2s.
2. How to get a mortgage when self employed?
Gather 12–24 months of business (or personal) bank statements, a year‑to‑date P&L, and usually a CPA or tax‑preparer letter. Lenders average your deposits, apply an expense factor, then underwrite DTI, LTV, credit, and reserves like any other loan.
3. Do Mortgage lenders use gross or net income for self employed?
They start with gross deposits, then knock off a standard expense factor (often 50 %). The result is the qualifying gross income underwriters use, taxes and personal spending come later in DTI math. To learn more in detail, read here.
4. How to calculate self-employed income for mortgage loans?
Total business deposits for the chosen period ÷ number of months × (1 – expense factor) × ownership %. That monthly figure is compared to debts to form your DTI.
5. How many months bank statements are used for self-employed mortgage?
Most bank‑statement mortgages accept 12 months. Some offer better rates or higher LTVs with 24 months because the longer history shows stability.
6. Is there a calculator for self employed people?
Yes, for self employed, most commonly used calculation is based on their bank statements. Our Self-Employed Mortgage Calculator (right above) was built specifically for freelancers, solopreneurs, and business owners who don’t have W‑2s.
