Can I get a loan as a 1099 employee?
The answer is YES!
Valor Lending Group has programs geared to benefit self-employed individuals, gig workers, investors and independent contractors. Since 2020 we have seen a surge in the “gig working” economy, there has been millions of Americans that have tried “gig working” and now 36% of US workers are dabbling in and succeeding in gig work, that is more than one-third of US workers. The typical 9AM-5PM job is slowly moving out of popularity and the new trend of working is for yourself. Who doesn’t want to work on their own time with no cap on the amount of hours they can put in? Uber, Lyft, Etsy, being social media influencers and really any home-based business is the future for Americans. This career choice is climbing to the top of the charts, and it is only expected to keep growing. Unfortunately, most mortgage industry automated underwriting processes are built towards borrowers with annual W2’s and pay stubs which is not beneficial to the new age self-employment.
Have no fear self-employed individuals, gig works, investors and independent contractors because this is where the stated income loan programs really Shine. These loan programs do NOT require W2’s, pay stubs or tax returns. There are many different types of loan programs that fall under the Stated Income Loan tree including DSCR Loans, 12–24-month Bank Statement Loans, TRUE Stated Income Loans, P&L Loans, 1099 Loans and more. In the sections below, you will find further explanation into the differences between these programs and their benefits.
