P&L-Only Mortgage Loan Program

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.

Who Is This Loan For

  • Self-employed borrowers with significant tax write-offs

  • Entrepreneurs and small business owners

  • Real estate professionals, freelancers, and consultants

  • Borrowers with inconsistent or seasonal income

  • Investors who need flexible, low-documentation financing
