What is a 1099 mortgage loan?

“1099 mortgage loan” is a common term for mortgage options that may consider income reported on Forms 1099 for eligible independent contractors or self-employed borrowers. It is not a single government loan program, and documentation rules vary by lender and loan type.

Independent contractors, consultants, gig workers, commission-based professionals, and other borrowers receiving nonemployee compensation may benefit when their income history and complete financial profile meet an available program’s guidelines.

Requirements vary. Some programs use traditional tax-return documentation, while certain eligible alternative-documentation programs may review Forms 1099 and additional records. Kevin will explain the documents required for the specific option.

Potential documents include Forms 1099, tax returns when required, bank statements, year-to-date income records, contracts, business information, asset statements, identification, and property documents.

Lenders evaluate the history, stability, and expected continuation of income. The required time period varies by program and the borrower’s circumstances.

Depending on the program and complete application, eligible 1099 income may be considered for a purchase, rate-and-term refinance, or other permitted transaction.

Pricing depends on market conditions, loan type, credit profile, property, occupancy, equity or down payment, documentation, lock timing, points, and lender guidelines. Review the Loan Estimate for the complete costs.

No. Approval requires a complete review of income, credit, assets, debts, property, occupancy, and all applicable underwriting requirements.

Eligible income sources may sometimes be combined when each source is properly documented and meets the selected program’s requirements.
