Can I use 1099 income to qualify?

Answered by Onias Derilus, Mortgage Capital · NMLS# 1859012 · Florida licensed mortgage broker

Yes. You can qualify with 1099 income using two years of tax returns, or through a 1099 income loan that uses your gross 1099 earnings minus a flat expense factor — no full returns required.

This helps contractors whose deductions shrink their net income. We'll compare both methods and use the one that yields the higher qualifying income.
