P&L-Only Mortgage
Streamlined Approval for Self-Employed Borrowers Using Just a P&L.
Qualify with Your Profit & Loss Statement — No Tax Returns Required
The P&L mortgage loan is a flexible alternative for self-employed borrowers who don’t show enough income on tax returns due to deductions and write-offs. With this program, your CPA-prepared Profit & Loss statement does the talking.
Benefits of a P&L Loan
- No Tax Returns Required: Income is verified using a CPA- or accountant-prepared profit and loss (P&L) statement—no need for tax documents.
- Fast, Streamlined Approval: Reduced paperwork allows for quicker approval and closing, ideal for busy business owners.
- Ideal for Self-Employed Borrowers: Tailored for entrepreneurs, consultants, freelancers, and independent contractors.
- Higher Qualifying Income: P&L loans can reflect your true business income, often allowing you to qualify for a larger loan or better terms.
- Versatile Use: Can be used for home purchase, rate/term refinance, or cash-out refinance on primary residences, second homes, or investment properties.

How a P&L Loan Works and Who It’s For
How It Works
-
Submit a Profit & Loss (P&L) statement covering the past 12 or 24 months, prepared by a CPA or licensed tax preparer.
-
The lender uses the net income from the P&L to determine your qualifying income.
-
No tax returns, W2s, or pay stubs are required.
-
Loan approval is based on your credit score, loan-to-value (LTV) ratio, and P&L income.
