Stated income mortgages are becoming available again in Arizona. This includes a handful of mortgage lenders that offer what are known as “alternative income verification loans”, which are also often called “alternative documentation mortgage loans”, or “bank statement loan programs”. All of these terms are interchangeable and mean the same thing.
These new loan products differ from the pre-recession mortgage programs, which were infamously known as “liar loans”. Today’s stated income loans actually require that your income be verified, however there are flexible options in how this verification takes place. Participating stated income lenders often allow either 12 or 24 months of bank statements to be used instead of tax returns. This is most helpful for borrowers who receive their income from many sources, such as those who are self employed.
Below is a list of the top stated income lenders in Arizona that offer bank statement programs.
