Not every borrower fits into a traditional mortgage box—and that's okay.

If you're self-employed, earn income from investments, own rental properties, or have substantial assets but irregular income, qualifying for a mortgage may seem challenging. Traditional lending guidelines often rely on W-2s and pay stubs to verify income, but many successful borrowers don't receive their income that way.

That's where CrossCountry Mortgage's Signature Series Loans come in.

These proprietary loan programs are designed for borrowers with non-traditional income sources, offering flexible qualification options that may help you achieve your homeownership or investment goals.

Why Does Your Income Source Matter?

When you apply for a mortgage, your lender needs to determine your ability to repay the loan. Along with your credit profile, debt obligations, and assets, your income plays a significant role in the approval process.

Traditional mortgage programs often prefer predictable income documented through W-2 employment. However, today's workforce includes entrepreneurs, freelancers, investors, consultants, and high-net-worth individuals whose financial situations may not fit conventional guidelines.

At The Polder Group at CrossCountry Mortgage, we understand that financial success comes in many forms. That's why we offer mortgage solutions that recognize alternative ways to demonstrate repayment ability.

Signature Investor Cash Flow Loan

For Real Estate Investors

If you already own rental properties and are looking to expand your portfolio, your property's cash flow may help you qualify for financing.

Rather than focusing solely on personal income, the Signature Investor Cash Flow Loan considers the rental income generated by investment properties. This can be an excellent option for experienced investors who have built successful rental portfolios and want financing that reflects their investment performance.

Signature 1099 Loan

For Self-Employed Professionals

Are you an entrepreneur, independent contractor, or self-employed professional?

If your income is reported through 1099 forms rather than traditional W-2s, a Signature 1099 Loan may be a solution worth exploring.

This program allows eligible borrowers to use documented 1099 income to help qualify for a mortgage. Whether you're purchasing your first home, upgrading to a larger property, or investing in real estate, we can help you explore financing options tailored to your unique situation.

Signature Bank Statement Program

Another Option for Self-Employed Borrowers

Many self-employed borrowers write off legitimate business expenses that reduce their taxable income on paper. While this can be beneficial for tax purposes, it may make qualifying for a traditional mortgage more difficult.

Our Signature Bank Statement Program provides an alternative.

Instead of relying primarily on tax returns, eligible borrowers may use 12 to 24 months of personal or business bank statements to document income. This program can be especially valuable for freelancers, consultants, business owners, and independent professionals whose income patterns don't fit conventional lending models.

Signature Asset Qualifier Loan

For High-Net-Worth Borrowers

You may have substantial financial assets but limited or irregular monthly income.

If your wealth is held in savings accounts, investment portfolios, stocks, bonds, retirement accounts, or other qualifying assets, traditional income documentation may not accurately reflect your financial strength.

The Signature Asset Qualifier Loan allows eligible borrowers to leverage their assets as part of the qualification process, creating opportunities that traditional financing may not offer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a mortgage if I'm self-employed?

Yes. Depending on your qualifications, self-employed borrowers may be eligible for mortgage programs that use 1099 income, bank statements, tax returns, or other approved documentation.

Can rental income help me qualify for a mortgage?

In many cases, yes. Certain investment property loan programs may allow rental income or property cash flow to be considered during the qualification process.

What if I have substantial assets but inconsistent income?

Asset-based mortgage programs may provide financing solutions for qualified borrowers whose wealth is primarily held in investments, savings, or other assets.

Are Signature Series Loans available for refinancing?

Depending on the program and borrower qualifications, Signature Series financing options may be available for both home purchases and refinances.
