Full Doc

A full doc loan is one that requires that the borrower present all necessary documents, including income verification to be considered for the home loan.

1099 loans allow a borrower who is an independent contractor and receives 1099 income to use up to 90% of their 1099 income to qualify.  For example, if a person works in the entertainment business and is 1099, but get say 12 1099’s during the year, we can add all of the 1099’s together and use 90% to calculate their income to qualify….
