Simplified Borrowing

As business owners and 1099 contractors, it is important that your time isn’t taken up by looking for every document imaginable. Our 1099 loans limit the requests for paperwork and income requirements.

Higher Loan Limits

Bank statement loans give business owners the options to claim their current revenue and not rely heavily on 2 years of claimed taxes and extensive income verifications. This opens up more doors for self employed borrowers to not only have an approval but increase their loan limits.

Look For Better Loan Terms

It is possible that if you qualify for a conventional loan, it might come with unfavorable limits. NonQM loans can have a more favorable approval rate and higher loan limits for our self employed borrowers.
