Mortgage Navigator • Non-QM / Non-Conforming

P&L-Only Mortgage Programs

Some self-employed borrowers may qualify using a professionally prepared or otherwise program-compliant profit-and-loss statement.

Private-investor product

P&L-only is not a Fannie/Freddie universal method. Requirements can include business history, preparer qualifications, supporting business evidence, expense reasonableness and other verification.

Verify the actual matrix

Whether tax transcripts, bank statements, business licenses, CPA/EA documentation or other records are required depends on the specific product.

Product-specific guidelines matter. Non-QM and non-conforming products are private-investor programs. Documentation, credit, LTV, reserves, property, prepayment terms where legally permitted, and other requirements vary by investor, lender, occupancy and loan purpose. Examples here are educational—not universal eligibility promises.
