Washington Loan Options
What Are Bank Statement Loans in Washington?
Bank statement loans are a type of non-qualified mortgage (non-QM) specifically designed for borrowers who don’t have traditional income documentation, such as W-2s or tax returns. Instead of standard paperwork, these loans use 12 to 24 months of personal or business bank statements to verify income—making them an ideal solution for self-employed individuals, independent contractors, freelancers, and small business owners.
This flexible loan option is especially valuable for buyers across Washington’s diverse real estate markets, including:
-
Seattle & Bellevue – Perfect for tech professionals, entrepreneurs, and small business owners seeking urban properties in one of the state’s most competitive housing markets.
-
Tacoma & Olympia – Ideal for buyers drawn to growing cities with vibrant communities and more affordable options.

-
Spokane & Eastern Washington – Great for borrowers investing in high-potential, lower-cost markets with steady economic growth.
-
Bellingham & the North Sound – Appealing to creatives and remote workers looking for scenic coastal living.
-
Tri-Cities (Richland, Kennewick, Pasco) – A top choice for real estate investors and professionals in Washington’s thriving wine and agriculture sectors.
-
Island and Coastal Areas (Whidbey, San Juan Islands) – Suited for second-home buyers and those leveraging short-term rental income.
-
Rural and Remote Communities – Bank statement loans can provide critical financing options in areas where traditional lending is limited or unavailable.
