How Self-Employed Borrowers Qualify in Florida

Write-offs that cut your tax bill also cut the income a traditional lender will count, so a strong business can still look weak on a 1040. Clear that, and the rest is straightforward. Here are the steps.

1

Gather 12–24 months of business or personal bank statements showing steady deposits.

2

Have your CPA prepare a current profit-and-loss statement if we go the P&L route.

3

Show the business has been operating for at least two years in most cases.

4

Keep personal and business accounts clean for the months before you apply.
