A Self-Employed Mortgage is tailored for individuals who run their own business or work as freelancers. Traditional mortgage lenders often rely on W-2s and pay stubs for income verification. Instead, these mortgages allow for alternative documentation, such as bank statements, profit and loss statements, and other financial records, to demonstrate income.
Our Self-Employed Mortgages offer flexible income verification and competitive rates, making it easier for entrepreneurs and freelancers to secure the financing they need to purchase or refinance a home.

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.

Perfect solution for retiree financing
I am retired and do not have regular monthly income so I no longer qualify for traditional loan products. I am also tech illiterate. Delania took time to help me navigate the process in a way that best fit my needs.

Small business owner finally approved
As a small business owner I was frustrated with my military banks when refinancing my home. Manases quoted me a great rate with cash out options. I closed faster than expected and everything he quoted came to pass.

Quick no-doc mortgage to keep family home
After my Mom passed, I needed a mortgage to buy my sister out and keep our family home. Other brokers said it wasn't possible but I filled out their short application and was approved with minimal hassle.

Self-employed refinance success
I am self-employed and needed to refinance my home. However, it was difficult to get a regular home loan due to large tax deductions. I am happy to receive Truss's Bank Statement Home Loan when traditional lenders turned me away.
