2-20-24 – 2 Jobs – can we use both incomes? We are seeing more and more buyers with multiple jobs when they are trying to qualify for a mortgage. The old rule was that we had to wait until a borrower had two jobs for a full two years. There are some exceptions, like those who work in the movie industry and nurses, where we average their income, and they can work multiple jobs annually. We can also make exceptions for the two years when we have a borrower who has been at a second job with consistent income for 12 months. Many people are now working remotely, allowing them to work multiple full-time jobs. These deals get a little hairy when a buyer has a business and then gets a job, keeps that job for a year, and wants to add the business income to the job income. The question becomes, “Is the borrower still running their business at full capacity?” This is where we need proof or a longer time to see a full-time job and the Business income.
