Is refinancing better in my case?
My wife and I are self employed and have reached out to a lender to help us. We both have good credit at 700 plus so our agent informed us that we can possibly put down as low as 10% down. The interest rate is in the 4 to 6% range. Is refinancing better than taking a bank statement loan? The property will be our primary home and we want to transition it into an Airbnb since there is a demand for such in Florida. by harryh380 from Orlando, Florida. Jan 4th 2022

Perhaps I am missing something here, but you cannot refinance a property you do not own. Typically, specialty loans like 'Bank Statement' loans carry a higher degree of risk, so naturally the rate will be higher as you have indicated. Just because you are self-employed doesn't mean you cannot qualify for a traditional income qualifying conventional loan with rates in the high 2s to the low 3s, depending on your credit and verifiable income.
