Client Success Story: Helping a Self-Employed Client Get Approved in 14 Days

Self-employed clients often feel like the mortgage process is stacked against them—but it doesn’t have to be.

Recently, I worked with a local client who owned a small business. They had strong cash flow but didn’t fit into the traditional salaried income box. Many lenders saw them as “too complex.”

Here’s how we got it done in just 14 days:

  • Carefully packaged their business financials and personal income to show stability.

  • Matched them with a lender experienced in self-employed files.

  • Communicated quickly and clearly with both client and lender to keep the file moving.

The result? An approved mortgage, keys in hand, and a very happy new homeowner. 🎉

Takeaway: Self-employed doesn’t mean shut out. With the right guidance and lender, you can absolutely qualify for the home you want.
