Commission, tips, bonuses, seasonal hours: income that changes from month to month is common around here, and it doesn't have to stop you from looking at homeownership.
Marc Rivera (NMLS #2809411), one of our Licensed Mortgage Loan Officers, shares what underwriting usually looks at:
1. Your income history, not one good month. Income that moves around is usually averaged over time.
2. Organized paperwork: pay stubs, W-2s and tax returns.
3. Self-employed? Some loan programs can look at bank statements instead.
Every file is different, so we look at the whole picture, with no pressure. Call (888) 392-5321, or reach Marc at his office line, (410) 680-3812. Our contact page is in the first comment.
