The borrower had been employed at this auto repair shop for many years. He entered into a contract with the owner/seller to purchase the property.
The problem that the buyer faced was that the seller was not able to provide written proof of the income from the business. The ideal method to prove income is for the seller to provide tax returns, but this was not an option as this was mostly a cash business. The lack of tax returns made it impossible for the borrower to qualify for a conventional loan. Another weakness of the loan request was that the borrower only had a 10% down payment.

Our “Stated” income loan was the solution for this loan request. However, the maximum LTV was 70% due to the property type. Our flexible loan allowed the seller to hold back a 20% second mortgage making this a 90% CLTV (combined loan to value) loan.

This loan allowed the borrower to acquire the property and business. The borrower’s intentions were to handle the income reporting differently so that he would be able to refinance into a conventional loan in the future. Therefore he was willing to accept the higher interest rate needed on a Stated Income loan since he saw this loan as a 2 to 3 year short term solution to acquiring the property.
