**When Self-Employment Complicates Your Home Purchase (And How to Fix It)**

This week on the Accunet Mortgage and Realty Show, David and Brian tackle the trickiest scenarios in mortgage lending—self-employed borrowers who don’t fit the traditional two-year mold.

If you own your own business or work for a family member, listen up. The guys walk through two real-world cases where creativity and advocacy turned potential deal-killers into successful closings. From IRA withdrawals that bypass Social Security documentation to adding back one-time paper business expenses, you’ll learn the moves that help mortgage underwriters say yes.

They also tackle the question on every buyer’s mind: “Should I wait for the Fed to cut rates?” The answer might surprise you—and could save you from missing today’s opportunity while waiting for tomorrow’s maybe.

Plus: Why a “drop” in home sales isn’t what it seems, how inventory is actually improving in Milwaukee, and why the best time to house hunt might be during a polar vortex when other buyers are hiding under blankets.

Whether you’re self-employed, thinking about refinancing, or wondering if now’s the right time to buy, this episode gives you the inside scoop from two veterans who’ve seen it all. No fluff, just practical advice.​​​​​
