The Entrepreneur Home Loan: Buy a Home With No Tax Returns or W-2s
You built your business by thinking differently — your mortgage should too.
If you’re self-employed, you don’t need tax returns, W-2s, pay stubs, or income calculations to qualify for a home loan.
With the Entrepreneur Home Loan Program, we use real indicators of financial strength — credit, assets, reserves, and equity — instead of taxable income.
You can purchase a primary home with up to 90% financing, loan amounts up to $5 million, and even use business funds toward your down payment or closing costs.
Why Entrepreneurs Struggle to Get Approved
Traditional banks underwrite loans using an outdated model — built for a world where almost everyone worked a W-2 job.
They expect:
Predictable paychecks
Clean tax returns
Minimal write-offs
Linear income with no volatility
But that’s not how entrepreneurs operate.
You reinvest in your business.
You minimize taxable income legally.
Your deposits fluctuate with growth cycles — not with payroll schedules.
Ironically, the strategies that make you a smart business owner often make you look “riskier” on paper — even when you’re more financially stable than many traditional employees.
The real issue?
Traditional underwriting wasn’t built for entrepreneurs.
The Entrepreneur Home Loan
The Entrepreneur Home Loan was created for borrowers whose true financial strength doesn’t show up on a tax return.
This program does not require any income documentation — no tax returns, no W-2s, no pay stubs, and no debt-to-income calculations.
Approval is based on:
Your credit
Your reserves
Your liquid assets
Your equity in the home
This allows you to qualify without changing your tax strategy or restructuring your business just to fit inside the bank’s box.
How It Works
Step 1 — Credit Strength
A 640–720+ FICO score is typical, depending on how much you want to put down.
(Yes — you can buy a primary home with as little as 10% down.)
Step 2 — Financial Reserves
You’ll typically need 3–6 months of reserves.
This ensures the underwriter has confidence you can navigate natural business cycles.
Step 3 — Assets Instead of Income
We verify liquidity, not income.
Eligible assets include:
Personal bank accounts
Business funds (pro-rated by ownership %)
Liquidated crypto
Gift funds
Retirement funds / stocks / bonds (depending on documentation requirements)
Step 4 — Choose the Property
Eligible for:
Primary residences
1–4 unit homes
Loan amounts up to $5,000,000
Up to 90% financing for purchases and rate-and-term refinances
Cash-out refinances typically allowed up to 75–80% LTV
