The absolute minimum down payment will be 10% and sometimes 20%, but it is possible that it can be as much as 25% down. Remember that the lenders are taking a risk by using bank statement deposits rather than your net income on your tax returns. So, their way to cover their risk is to make sure there is enough equity in the home in the event of a foreclosure.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>Florida Stated Income Property Types Allowed<\/strong><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Single Family Residences<\/li>\n<li>1-4 family buildings<\/li>\n<li>Condos<\/li>\n<li>Townhouses<\/li>\n<li>Manufactures Homes<\/li>\n<li>Commercial\/Investment\u00a0 &#8211; loan requirements will likely be different.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: center;\">\u00a0<u><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dreamhomefinancing.com\/\/LeadForm\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Click For a Florida Stated Income Rate Quote<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p><u><strong>Stated Income Frequently Asked Questions &#8211; FAQ<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Who are stated income loans for?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: They are strictly for the self employed or individuals who are 1099 earners.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What is the benefit of a stated income loan?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A: The immediate benefit is not having to qualify based upon the net income on your tax returns.
