General
Requirements:
Lenders usually look for a minimum of
2 years of self-employment history or employment
history in the same field. Proof
for minimum of 2 years employment history for
self-employed borrowers may be accomplished by obtaining
a typed letter from a accountant/CPA on their company
letterhead to get verification of the borrowers self
employment. If an accountant is not available, two
years of business license or confirmation from 3
disinterested business associates may be required. Your ability to
qualify for the loan is based on the
income stated on the application. The income
must be in line with your occupation.
Credit & Reserves:
Borrowers generally need credit FICO
scores over 620, with the mortgage not over 30 days past due in the last 12
months. Loan Programs offered on on 6 mo adjustable, 2, 3, 5, &
7 year ARM's. The borrower should
have 2 to 4 months of the mortgage payment in liquid cash reserves on a purchase
or refinance for the best rate. Liquid Cash Reserves can be from checking,
savings, cash, CD's, money market accounts, stocks, bonds, IRA's, 401k's, and
Keogh accounts.
On cash out refinances,
reserves can come from the loan proceeds and the credit score may need to be
higher. The other programs (30 yr and 15 yr fixed) require less reserves.
Some NIV or
stated income programs have credit FICO scores as low as 600 with higher debt to income
ratios. Of course you can always inquire of your particular situation and
see what we can offer.
Often,
investors and people who don't want to show their tax returns
inquire about stated income or no doc loans for residential but
also commercial property. That is something we offer as well on 5+
units.
