A stated income loan is a mortgage loan that does not require
you to provide documentation of your income. A stated income
mortgage loan is most beneficial to individuals whose income
is hard to document. Stated Income Mortgage Loans are
the most commonly used and least expensive product in the
reduced or no doc loan programs.
A Stated Income Mortgage Loan is suited for you if you have
verifiable employment (self employment is fine) and assets.
Income that is stated on the application must be reasonable
in terms of your occupation and assets. A stated income
loan is available to borrowers in all credit grades. Qualification
for these loans usually require the borrower to have a certain
minimum credit score. The minimum credit score required for
a stated income mortgage loan will vary from lender to lender
but with most lenders you will need to have a fico score of
at least 580. However we have a few programs available that
will allow a lower score for a stated income mortgage.
