AGI on the bottom of your taxes. Add 2015 and 2014 AGI and divide by 2. That's your income used. Small other items can be added back in like depreciation write offs back to that income.

Always after.. with a few exceptions.. This is the reason lenders came up with the stated income loans, it was specifically for the self employed borrower... but that loan product was overly abused... so it no longer exists.. if your company brings in $1,000,000 per year, but you write of $990,000, and you have $10,000 left over after expenses.. then for loan qualifying purposes.. you make $10,000... The exceptions are things like depreciation and certain loans that are attached to your personal credit report, but are paid through the company.. .. I'm a Broker here in Scottsdale AZ and I only lend in Arizona. If you or someone you know is looking for financing options, feel free to contact me or pass along my information. William J.
