Specialized Loan Programs for Independent Workers in Southern Arizona

Self-Employed & 1099 Mortgage Solutions

Traditional lenders struggle with 1099 workers and self-employed individuals. We have specialized loan programs designed specifically for independent workers.

Perfect for:

  • 1099 independent contractors
  • Freelancers and consultants
  • Business owners (S-Corp, LLC, Sole Prop)
  • Commission-based workers
  • Multiple income sources
  • Recently self-employed professionals

No more myths: "I can't get a mortgage as a 1099 worker" ❌ FALSE! We have programs designed specifically for you!

How 1099 Mortgage Programs Work

Instead of struggling with traditional lenders, use our 1099-friendly programs that understand independent worker income.

We have multiple qualification options:

  • Bank Statement Method: Qualify using 24 months bank statements
  • Tax Return Method: Standard 2 years tax returns (1040 + Schedule C)
  • Hybrid Method: Combination of statements + returns for best results
  • Asset-Based Method: Qualify based on investments/assets

Income Calculation:

Conservative approach: Average 2 years income
Add back business expenses (they reduce income on returns)
Example: Tax return shows $50k, but you had $8k in deductions you can add back = $58k qualifying income
