Simplify Your Mortgage with a Bank Statement Loan

Get started

What is a Bank Statement Loan?

A Bank Statement Loan is specifically designed for self-employed individuals who may not have traditional income documentation, such as W-2s or tax returns. Instead of relying on these documents, lenders use your bank statements to verify your income. 

This type of loan is ideal for freelancers, business owners, and independent contractors who have a steady flow of deposits but lack conventional proof of income.
Bank Statement Loans offer flexible income verification, making it easier for you to secure the mortgage you need. These loans often come with competitive rates and flexible terms, tailored to suit your unique needs.

Bank statement refinance made easy

I did a refinance using bank statements. As a self employed individual, our W2 doesn't fully reflect our take in the business. The entire process was right around 30 days and was as painless as any large transaction can be.
