Are Personal Bank Statements Allowed?
Yes — on many Non-QM programs. Personal statements work when revenue or owner draws land in your personal account. Here is how personal vs. business documentation differs and which deposit factor applies.
Two documentation paths — we pick the one that maximizes usable income for your scenario.
Personal accounts
Best when business revenue lands in your personal account or you draw owner distributions that show as clear deposits. Programs often count a higher percentage of deposits as income.
Business accounts
Ideal when revenue stays in the business account. Underwriters apply an expense factor so deposit totals reflect realistic net cash flow after operating costs.
How personal account deposits translate into qualifying income on Indiana Non-QM files.
Deposit factors and expense assumptions vary by investor. We run both paths before you apply to find the strongest qualifying income.
If all your revenue deposits directly into a personal checking account — common for sole proprietors and many 1099 contractors — personal statements are usually the simpler path.
If revenue stays in a business account and you pay yourself periodically, compare both: business statements with an expense factor vs. personal statements showing only your draws. The path with higher net qualifying income wins.
