Challenges of Getting a Mortgage When Self-Employed

As a self-employed individual, qualifying for a mortgage can be more complex due to:

  • Irregular income streams and tax write-offs reducing reported earnings.
  • Difficulty in proving long-term financial stability.
  • Higher documentation requirements compared to salaried employees.

At Genesis Group, we make it easier by working with lenders who understand self-employed income structures and offering mortgage solutions tailored to your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I prove my income as a self-employed borrower?

Lenders typically require tax returns, bank statements, business financials, and NOAs (Notice of Assessment) to verify your income.

Yes! Alternative lending solutions allow self-employed individuals to qualify using bank statements and declared income.

Generally, a minimum of 10-20% is required, but with strong financials, you may qualify for lower down payment options.

Rates depend on your financial profile, but we work with lenders to secure competitive options that align with your income.

Most lenders prefer at least two years of self-employment history, but some offer options with shorter durations.
