Business For Self Mortgage Solutions
It is important to understand what many lenders today look for when they are considering your application for a mortgage. The nature of your business is very important because it gives banks and other lenders insight into how and where you generate your monthly revenue. A construction company owner can operate in many different sectors of the construction industry. Knowing whether the business caters to commercial or residential and what type of work they do is important.
Another important measure of your business is the length of time it has been in existence. Gone are the days where you can open a business today and in a few months qualify for all kinds of credit because you generated a ton of revenue. Most lending institutions want to see at least two years of self-employed history to back up any income claim on an application. The two year history shows stability of income and employment.
Documents Make Mortgage Qualifying Easy
Here’s where you probably stopped and thought, well let’s not get into documentation requests. I am self-employed and do not file my income taxes like employed mortgage borrowers do. Don’t Panic – your income taxes only tell part of the story and we know that. Being self-employed affords you the opportunity to direct your revenue stream many different ways. The good news is that even though there tougher guidelines to qualify for a self-employed mortgage today; your taxes are not the be all end all.
Here is a list of helpful documents that can make the world difference when applying for a mortgage.
- 12 months business bank statements (personal bank statements if that’s all you use)
- 6-12 months worth of invoices
- Business Registration and Licensing
- Contracts
These items can help your mortgage broker get a better understanding of the income you generate verses the income you claim. Of course there is a ton of math behind discovering what income we can use and the income we cannot – leave it with the experts.
Great Self-Employed Mortgage Rates
Even though there are more guidelines to follow that does not mean you will automatically be paying higher rates as a self-employed borrower. There are several lender options out there that come with great rates and less headaches. Further to that there are still CMHC (Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation) programs that are built to assist those that are self employed.

Just wanted to drop you a note to say thanks again! I just looked at my new amortization schedule and I am so glad I made the initial call to you. My mortgage is going to be paid off 6 years sooner and I am saving $700 per month.

I can’t believe we put off refinancing our home as long as we did. Looking back at what we were paying and what we are paying now makes me want to cry. We are saving over $1300 per month in payments. Thanks again for everything you did!
