Bank Statement Loans in Texas

Self-employed? Qualify for a home loan with your personal or business bank statements instead of tax returns, with as little as 10% down on a primary home anywhere in Texas.

Why Texas business owners choose our bank statement program

What is a bank statement loan?

A bank statement loan is a home loan that documents your income with your bank statements instead of tax returns or W-2s. Instead of looking at the taxable income on your returns, the review looks at the deposits flowing through your accounts.

It's built for self-employed buyers. Business owners often write off expenses to lower their taxes, which also lowers the income a traditional lender can count. Bank statements show what you actually bring in.

Who qualifies for a bank statement loan in Texas?

Our Texas bank statement program is for self-employed buyers purchasing a home to live in: small business owners, LLC and S-corp owners, sole proprietors, real estate agents, contractors and tradespeople, consultants, and freelancers.

You'll need recent bank statements that show steady income, a down payment, and an eligible primary residence in Texas. Investment properties and second homes aren't eligible.

Bank statement loan down payment: as low as 10%

Down payments on our bank statement program start as low as 10%. On a $350,000 home, that's $35,000. Your exact amount depends on your credit and the home's price, and our quick survey shows it in about a minute.

Gift funds from family can count toward your down payment.

How income is calculated from bank statements

Our team reviews your recent personal or business bank statements to see the income coming in month after month, and tells you how your qualifying income is figured.

Steady, consistent deposits make the strongest file. Our team tells you exactly which statements to send.

Bank statement loan vs. a conventional mortgage

A conventional mortgage qualifies you on the income shown on your tax returns, usually for the last two years. If your business writes off a lot of expenses, that number can be far below what you really earn.

A bank statement loan skips the tax returns and looks at your deposits instead, so the income you qualify with reflects what your business actually brings in.
