Self-Employed Mortgage Solutions: Bank Statements, 1099 Income & No Tax Returns Required – Interview with Joe Manzioni of First Christian Mortgage
Podcasts > The Bill Bunkley Show
Monday, October 26, 2026
In this insightful interview on The Bill Bunkley Show, Kyle Warren sits down with Joe Manzioni of First Christian Mortgage to explore how self-employed borrowers can successfully qualify for home loans, refinances, and home equity lines of credit even when traditional tax returns and W-2s don’t tell the full story. Joe explains that as a direct lender built on Christian values of integrity and relationship-focused service, First Christian Mortgage offers specialized niche programs that many conventional lenders overlook. Self-employed clients can qualify using just 12 months of business bank statements (with 50% of deposits counted as income), 90% of 1099 income, or a CPA-prepared profit-and-loss statement—often with no tax returns required—provided they have at least 20% down for purchases. The conversation also covers differences for veterans seeking VA or FHA loans, the advantages of working with a direct lender versus a broker, the “bait and switch” pitfalls common in the industry, and why long-term client relationships matter more than one-time transactions. Listeners learn practical pathways for landscapers, contractors, real estate agents, and other self-employed professionals to turn cash flow into homeownership, with Joe available seven days a week at 888-834-8880 or firstchristianmortgage.com.
