Financing & mortgages
What documents do I need to get a mortgage?
The short answer
Lenders generally want proof of income (pay stubs, tax returns, W-2s or 1099s), proof of assets (bank and investment statements), identification, and details on your debts. Self-employed buyers usually need additional documentation. Ava generates a personalized checklist so nothing stalls your approval.
