Im trying to get a loan and I’m an owner operator. I made 77k last year and deducted 17k per diem which the government accepts 80 percent of that of course. Quicken loans wants to deduct the 17k and the 14k , which is the 80 percent, and pushes my AGI to low to get a 180k house. I tried explaining and showed them what they did wrong but of course they go by a simple formula and that’s it l. Any advice or knowledge of banks that knows how the trucking industry works.
Any mortgage companies that understand per diem

I went to a local bank in town, they understand self employed people and set me up quickly. Forget the online guys, go sit down with an actual banker.
Mattflat362 and Tb0n3 Thank this. -
Where do you live? I can give you a recommendation to a lady in my area, who a lot of local truckers get mortgage from. I personally know her and she knows exactly what you are talking about.

Going to Quicken Loans for a mortgage is like going to Fantastic Sam's for a haircut. There is a vast sea of people who are better and can be more understanding and accomodating.

I went thru this when i tried to buy a house. I had to go 3 years without taking my perdiem to get the mortgage. After the was written i had my accountant go back over my last three years of taxes and put the perdiem in. I got my mortgage & a refund check from the irs.
It’s a game, learn to play it! -
I know my guys at my local bank by name and they know me and what I do.
Try local....right in your neighborhood...
