If you’re self-employed, document requests can feel intimidating — especially when tax returns are involved. But in many cases, reviewing the original return allows lenders to identify eligible add-backs that may increase your qualifying income. It’s not about making assumptions. It’s about accuracy, clarity, and positioning you as strongly as possible. If buying a home is on your heart this year, start the income conversation early. It makes all the difference.

Realtor Tip: Looking for a fresh way to boost open house traffic?

The “Golden Ticket” Mail Drop
Send 20–30 neighbors an eye-catching gold envelope or scratch-off style invite with this message:
“Bring this to the open house to enter a $25 gift card raffle.”

Why it works:
✔️ Creates buzz & curiosity
✔️ Encourages neighbors to spread the word
✔️ Adds fun & value to your event

Bonus Tip: Partner with your lender! They can pitch in for a second gift card, doubling the incentive and doubling the excitement.

It’s fun, creative, and gets people talking — plus neighbors often know someone looking to buy in the area.

Sometimes it’s the creative little touches that make the biggest impact.
