The primary area where S/E borrowers have problems is with their federal tax deductions. When a borrower has taken every conceivable deduction many cannot document enough income to qualify, even after performing a Form 1084.Happy funding, Rudi

Self employment does not effect the interest rate you will receive. It does have an impact on the documents that are required and the income you use for qualification. Most lenders require that you be self employed for 2 years. I have one lender that will do a loan with on year of self employment. You will need to provide 2 years of tax returns and your income is based upon the self employment your reported on your tax return.

As the other responders have indicated, your rates are not affected by self-employment on it's own. The biggest issue that I see is that Loan Officers don't know the ins and outs of which deductions do count against you and which don't. I find myself able to qualify self employed clients that have been turned down by other banks due to their inexperience in calculating the acceptable income. These calculations are also different depending on the loan program as well. If you are having issues, feel free to contact me at 240-752-7549, or at rhanson@westtownsb.com.
