Stated Income Investor Loans
Stated income loans let rental property investors qualify based on verified lease income and property cash flow — no personal tax returns, no W-2s, and no employer verification required. If you're self-employed, operate through an LLC, or simply prefer not to share personal financials, this program was built for you.
We lend on the income the property produces, not your personal income. Minimum 650 FICO score, up to 80% LTV, and available in all 48 contiguous states. Whether you're purchasing a new rental, refinancing existing debt, or pulling cash out of built-up equity, our stated income program delivers competitive rates without the paperwork burden of conventional lending.

Who Qualifies for a Stated Income Loan?
Stated income programs work well for investors who have strong properties but non-traditional income documentation. That includes self-employed borrowers, real estate professionals who reinvest most of their income, and investors with complex tax structures that make DTI-based qualification difficult.
The key qualification factors are the property's income performance (verified through lease agreements and bank statements), your credit profile (650+ FICO), and the loan-to-value ratio. If the property cash flows and you have decent credit, you're likely a fit. Our no-ratio DSCR program is another option if you want to eliminate the debt service coverage requirement entirely.
