Tired of being "too successful" to qualify at a traditional bank?

Traditional lenders are stuck in the past. They look at your Net Taxable Income, the number left over after your accountant works their magic with deductions and write-offs.

To a big bank, you look like you don’t make enough.

To us, you look like a savvy business owner.

We ignore the 1040s and focus on your Actual Cash Flow.

By using your bank statements to verify income, we see the true strength of your business, allowing you to access up to $3,000,000 in equity that other banks simply can't reach.

Have a low first mortgage rate? Can't show tax returns?

Truss Financial Group can help you qualify and get the best rate, term, and fees on a No Tax Return HELOC. We offer No Doc HELOC mortgages at the lowest possible rates when needed, but we also offer a variety of alternative mortgages to keep your rates and fees even lower.

Second home

 In some situations, a “no tax return HELOC” mortgage is the best or only option 

That’s a loan that requires very limited to no documentation of income or ability to repay. No Doc loans are sometimes known as a No Tax Return Mortgage or a No Income Verification Mortgage.

And typically, “no-doc” mortgages are handled by Hard Money lenders that charge super-high rates. Usually, we can help you avoid that.

For example, if you're an investor, we can help you qualify using a DSCR loan -where approval is based on your property's cash flow, not your personal income.Talk to Truss. Find out how easy it is to get the mortgage money you need at the lowest possible rates.

Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum credit score for a No-Doc HELOC?

At Truss, we generally look for a 660 FICO score or higher. However, for borrowers with significant equity (lower LTV), we can often find flexible solutions for scores in the mid-600s.

Can I use a HELOC to buy more investment property?

Absolutely. This is the #1 use case for our clients. By using a No-Tax Return HELOC, you can use your existing equity as a "down payment fund" to grow your real estate portfolio without liquidating other assets.

Do you offer No-Tax Return for LLCs?

Yes. We are one of the few brokers that work with a wide range of national lenders that allow you to take out a HELOC on a property title held in an LLC or a Trust, providing you with the liability protection you need.

What are the current rates for Bank Statement HELOCs?

Rates for alternative documentation loans are slightly higher than traditional "full-doc" loans to account for the flexibility. However, for the self-employed, the tax savings of your write-offs usually far outweigh the minor difference in interest rate.

Is it possible to get a home loan without ITR (Income Tax Returns)?

Yes, it is entirely possible to secure a home loan without providing traditional Income Tax Returns (ITR) when you work with a specialized "No-Doc" lender like Truss Financial Group. While traditional retail banks mandate two years of W2s and tax filings, our No Tax Return HELOC program allows you to bypass the 1040 requirement entirely. We focus on your Actual Cash Flow through your bank statements or the rental income generated by your properties (DSCR), ensuring that your high tax write-offs no longer stand in the way of your funding goals. Whether you are a self-employed entrepreneur or a 1099 contractor, we offer a direct path to liquidity without the need for the invasive IRS Form 4506-C.

Does a HELOC hurt your taxes?

A HELOC is designed to be a flexible financial asset, and at Truss Financial Group, we ensure it does not interfere with your existing tax strategies. Traditional lenders often let your tax deductions "hurt" your ability to borrow, but our No-Doc HELOC ignores those write-offs and recognizes the true strength of your business income. This empowers you to maintain your aggressive tax planning while still accessing up to $3,000,000 in equity for property renovations, business scaling, or new investments. While we recommend consulting a tax professional regarding specific interest deductibility, our goal is to provide fast, flexible capital that rewards your business success rather than penalizing your tax efficiency.

Built by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs™

Jeff Miller and Jason Nichols created Truss Financial Group to help clients avoid the disappointments they themselves had experienced as self-employed real estate investors. After the financial crisis of 2008, and in the wake of greater government regulation of traditional banks, Jeff and Jason got tired of applying for mainstream mortgages, getting denied, and resorting to hard money loans at high rates.

They solved their own problem by bringing together a group of non-traditional banks and financial funds specifically to support the self-employed and real estate investors. Now with decades of experience and an expert mortgage lending team, you won’t find advisors with a greater ability to help you qualify for the loan you need at the lowest possible rate.
