Mortgage Approval for Self-Employed-Cressy & Everett Real Estate

Getting a mortgage isn't what it once was. After the market crash of a decade ago, getting the funding for the most expensive purchase most people will make during their lifetimes has been heavily regulated and for good reason. If you're looking for South Bend homes for sale and happen to be self-employed, your journey toward a mortgage comes with some additional challenges.

Even so, our real estate agents can help you take the right path to mortgage approval.

  • Get Your Documents in Order
    The first rule of getting a mortgage for anyone is to get all of your financial documents in order and be prepared to present them if asked by your lender. A non-self-employed person who earns regular wages can expect to provide a couple of months of bank statements, a handful of paystubs, and a couple of years of tax returns.

    The self-employed mortgage applicant, however, may be required to provide the same documentation but more of it. If you keep proper books, then it shouldn't be any trouble providing both business and personal documents that show cash flow through the business and translated into personal income. In short, be prepared to do a little more work to prove your financial status and income.
