It is not as difficult as you may think to qualify for a home loan financing if you are self-employed. Sure as a W-2 wage earner the lender just calls the employer to verify the income, but being self-employed the lender won't just call you since you are the borrower. Each lender may vary a little but this is what the majority look for.


Full-Doc Loan

This is for those who can offer plenty of proof of income. Here is what the lender will want to see: two most recent tax returns, a current year-to-date profit and loss statement and balance statement, business license, verify all assets and recent bank statements.

Low-Doc Loan

You will need one to two years bank statements, CPA Letter, verify assets and business license.


No-Doc Loan

You just state your income and assets and the lender does not verify accuracy.

Now, as you may have guessed, the less the lender verifies the higher the interest rate will be. And the lower your loan to value percentage will be (the loan amount is based on the percentage of the appraised value of the property). So you will be able to borrow less of a percentage of the value of the property.

As always, your credit score will affect your interest rate, but the good thing is that anyone of these types of loans can be done even if your credit score is low. But of course, again, the interest rate will be higher because of this factor also.

Your best bet is to speak with a knowledgeable Home Loan Advisor who will answer all your questions and steer you in the right direction.

If you had to resort to a home mortgage to purchase your property, and you are in an advanced stage of repayment, thinking about a home mortgage refinancing may give you extra money to count within your monthly budget. Many times, after a while living in a property, there are certain repairs that happen to be done. A broken roof or old plumb cannot stay that way forever, but we are always thinking about something else that has to be paid first and we leave our properties to loose bright and value with the pass of the years.
Being as it is, increasingly difficult to pay off mortgage installments, more and more people are resorting to long term mortgages in an intent to reduce the amount of the monthly payments. If there is no other option for purchasing your own property there is no much to discuss. However, if it is possible to afford a shorter term mortgage it is wise to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of closing on a long term mortgage deal with your home loan lender.
Although banks love the lawyers whose services they can buy, either as government legislators, regulators, or law firms who will lie to courts about foreclosure cases, these same lenders rarely enjoy talking to the legal representative of a homeowner.
This weekend on the radio, there was an interesting discussion among a handful of financial and mortgage experts about the banking industry's current fascination with loan modification programs. The participants in the discussion came up with some very good points about the modifications that lenders are currently offering to homeowners in foreclosure trying to lower their monthly bills and how banks use attorneys to pursue foreclosure but do not want to deal with a homeowner's legal representation.
A "Jumbo" mortgage is defined as a loan that is too large to be bought by Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae. Depending on the state, limits range from just under $420,000 to $730,000. When the credit crisis was at its peak, jumbo mortgages were hard to find. Lenders looked at them as an unecessary risk and these mortgages were down 70 per cent in 2008 from prior years. Now that the dust has cleared, some companies are considering the jumbo mortgage market a new opportunity. As mortgage rates continue to drop, so do rates for 30-year jumbo mortgages.
The government and the President have a new plan to help homeowners out of foreclosure. We refer to it as the "Obama Plan". Many homeowners are hoping and praying for the best, but if history has shown us anything, we know it's always best to have a back up plan.
Over $9 million was deposited into an account controlled by Bell. This complex scheme resulted in charges to 24 co-conspirators for bank and wire fraud, money laundering and corrupt racketeering activity. They had participants from real estate, title insurance, appraisal and notary public.
