Valor No Tax Return Loans | Valor Lending Group
When you are self-employed it may be difficult for you to qualify for a traditional mortgage.
Self-employed individuals use the IRS tax code to write off expenses, however by doing that their income is much lower than the amount needed to qualify for a loan.
Below you will find multiple loan options that would work for self-employed individuals that are unable to use their tax returns to qualify for a mortgage loan.

Are you a real estate investor looking to acquire a rental loan?
Rental loans today have competitive financing for residential properties for new acquisitions.
Today rental loans have competitive financing for residential properties and they have Cash-Out refinancing available for investment properties that are currently owned.
The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) conducted a recent examination on rental housing using U.S. Census data. They found that 86% of rental properties in the U.S. are single-family residences; two-to-four-unit residences being the next most common type of rental property.
Valor Lending Group will deliver top-notch communication, rates, and turn times to help you acquire the rental loan you need.
What is Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR)?
The DSCR = Properties Current Rents / New PITI (principal, interest, taxes, and insurance) monthly Payment. If your property is collecting rents that covers your current PITI Payment your property debt services aka your property’s rents cover your total mortgage payment.
Example of DSCR Calculation: New P&I = $1,851.26 + 758.53 taxes + $147 insurance = $2,756.79 PITI | $3200 Current Rents/$2756.79 = 1.16 DSCR
Debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) is one of many financial ratios that lenders assess when considering a loan application. This ratio is especially important because the result gives some indication to the lender of whether you’ll be able to pay back the loan with interest. A ratio over 1 is good, and the higher the better.
The minimum DSCR a lender will demand depends on macroeconomic conditions. If the economy is growing, lenders may be more forgiving of lower qualifying ratios.
Here’s how to interpret your DSCR:
- DSCR < 1: You have negative cash flow. You don’t have enough rental income to service the debt (New PITI payment).
- DSCR = 1: You have exactly enough rental coming in to service the debt (New PITI payment), but you don’t have an additional cash cushion.
- DSCR > 1: You have positive cash flow. The higher your DSCR, the more income you have to service the debt (New PITI payment).
DSCR – Example
For example, assume an investment property is rented for $2,000/month. Assume also the property has the following monthly expenses.
Principal & Interest $1,000/mo
Property Taxes $250/mo
Insurance $120/mo
HOA Dues $130/mo
TOTAL PITIA $1,500/mo
In this example, the DSCR = $2,000 Monthly Rent / $1,500 Monthly PITIA = 1.33.
No-tax-return investment property lenders generally want to see DSCR above 1.00, and sometimes offer better pricing if the DSCR is above 1.25-1.50.

Valor No Tax Return Loans | Stated Income Loans | Valor Lending Group
Stated income loans were created for self-employed individuals that do not qualify for a traditional mortgage due to the low income on their tax returns. Investors and banks created the stated income loan program to help self-employed individuals buy or refinance their homes.
Valor Lending Group works with the very best to help you get the perfect loan that fits your needs.
What Are Stated Income Loans?
These are not the type of loans that were prevalent in the pre-2008 financial crisis, and no longer are the days in which loan applicants can simply state their income on a loan application with virtually no due diligence conducted by the lender.
After the 2008 financial crisis, the sweeping provisions of Dodd-Frank changed the industry substantially, at least in the owner-occupied residential context. Since 2010 Dodd-Frank has required lenders to document a residential borrower’s ability to repay the loan.
Bank statement lenders still want to ensure borrowers can repay their mortgages; they just use bank statements to verify income as opposed to tax returns. Self-employed borrowers are able to document their ability to repay based on business deposits into their personal or business bank accounts, i.e., their true cash flow.
Why Use Stated Income Loans?
1) The Difference

Traditional mortgage lenders require tax returns, W-2s, and paycheck stubs in order to determine monthly income. For salaried and hourly borrowers, the lenders look at gross income for qualifying purposes. But for self-employed borrowers, traditional mortgage lenders look at net income, the adjusted gross income showing on tax returns. This puts self-employed borrowers at a disadvantage because the typical self-employed or 1099 employee will write off as much expense as possible from their gross income on their tax returns to minimize how much they owe once tax season comes around.
