At Innovative Mortgage, we specialize in providing a comprehensive suite of mortgage solutions, including our Bank Statement Mortgage program. This program is designed to accommodate self-employed individuals and entrepreneurs who may not have the traditional forms of income documentation required by conventional loan programs.

Understanding Bank Statement Mortgages:

Key Features:

  • Income Verification: Instead of W-2s or tax returns, borrowers can leverage their personal or business bank statements to demonstrate their income. Typically, 12 to 24 months of statements are required to establish a consistent cash flow.
  • Credit Flexibility: Our program offers flexibility for those with near-miss credit situations, helping borrowers who may be slightly outside the conventional lending criteria due to credit issues.
  • Loan Amounts: With loan amounts ranging up to $3,500,000, our Bank Statement Mortgage program caters to a wide range of financing needs.
  • Loan-to-Value (LTV) Ratios: We offer maximum LTV ratios of up to 90% for primary residences, ensuring that you can leverage the highest possible funding based on your property value.

Program Requirements:

  • Business Ownership: Borrowers must have been self-employed and owned their business for at least two years.
  • Documentation: The program requires a Self-Employed Business Narrative Form and verification that the business has been in existence for two years.
  • Reserves: Depending on the loan amount, borrowers may need to show reserves ranging from 3 to 12 months of the subject property’s PITI (Principal, Interest, Taxes, and Insurance).

Additional Options:

  • Easy Doc Financing: For those seeking a faster closing process, our Easy Doc Financing offers a streamlined alternative.
  • Bridge Loans and Hard Money: To accommodate acquisitions requiring quick closings or properties that need stabilization, our Bridge and Hard Money loans provide interim financing solutions.

No Tax Returns Needed

For a variety of reasons this is a big relief for some of our clients, especially the self employed.

Easier Underwriting

Underwriting criteria are a lot more forgiving for Bank Statement Loans.
3

No PMI!

The higher interest is easier to swallow when you learn that there is no PMI regardless of LTV.

Cons of Bank Statement Mortgages

1

Higher Cost Loan

Even after factoring PMI savings the payment will likely be higher than a comparable Conventional Loan.
2

Higher % Down

A bank statement mortgage requires a minimun of 10% down with a credit score over 700. % down increases as credit score drops.

Key Issues That Will Get Early Attention

1
Try Conventional
With the way we're set up it's easy to check Traditional and Specialty programs simultaneously. If we can save you money we will.
2
Identify Income
What we count is valid deposits. It's best to send it in to the underwritter and have them confirm so 100% confident in the information and you can move forward confidently.
3
Analyze Credit
Aside from the typical qualification, we're looking for errors, innacuracies and rapid re-score opportunities to optimize your credit score so we can find the best terms.
4
Discuss Mortgage Strategy
If you qualify for a conventional loan it means you paid a lot more in taxes. We'll discuss what you would have to do to qualify for conventional financing so can prepare for a future refinance if it makes sense to do so.
