LAKE FOREST, Calif. - Dec. 29, 2015 - PRLog -- BanCorp Properties http://www.bancorprealty.com has always been recognized as the leader in niche’ financing for potential home buyers in Southern California who had difficulty verifying there income through traditional sources (tax returns). The much anticipated release of the Platinum Gold Stated Income 75 program has opened the flood gates to buyers who had previously been locked-out of the market due to their inability to prove income – and the best part about this financing program is the rates are excellent.

This new financing program is unlike any other that has hit the market in California.

No income verification financing is back, getting more buyers back in the Southern California housing market.

The borrower must verify that they have at least 9 months of mortgage payments saved in the bank, the total costs run approximately 3% and there is no prepayment penalty.

This program is a purchase-money product created for the Realtors and clients of BanCorp Properties who are interested in buying a home. BanCorp also offers a sub-prime product (for those with less-than-perfect credit with FICO scores going all the way down to 500.

The minimum down payment under our subprime program is 25% and the rates average approximately 7%.
