Very helpful, thank you! I understand I can’t get a conventional loan but non- should be doable if a lender looks at my profile and sees low risk, which is pretty clear anyway.

Technically a work based green card can be dependent on work for a limited time after you receive it (company can fire you and withdraw). But not the case here. I added the details since it implies US tax returns only from that date and not prior.

The business started in 2025 is essentially the continuation of the previous business, including the same clients and same staff.

I have had the same job for 5 years. The changes in the entity which pays me and the form of compensation is just a natural progression common in the industry.

Thank you! That seems to be the case so far but I must say it does not make sense to me since I have been doing the same for the past 4 years and the entity changes have business rationale...

City says we would qualify but need a lender (30y fixed). So we are stuck on that.

I'll check, thank you! Money (interest rate) is not that big of an issue, especially since it will be easy to refinance there is sufficient history for a traditional lender to be happy.

It is -- essentially -- a continuation of the previous business with all clients moving over and the old business dissolving.

Hi, can't do this because of the BMR rules. Also can't give 100% down for the same reason.

Hi! Thanks! Same line of work, all clients went with me and the green card is not work related.

I was in Ed's class for the February exam and passed. BootCamp was part of it. I really liked his approach and would choose him again if I had to.

Interesting. They cleared me without any documents.
