For many self-employed professionals, freelancers, or small business owners, applying for a mortgage can feel like a challenge. Traditional loans usually require W-2s, pay stubs, and tax returns that don’t always reflect the true income of someone who works independently.

Have you ever been bombarded with spam calls after applying for a mortgage?

Great News: The Homebuyers Privacy Protection Act will put an end to the unwanted solicitations many buyers receive after submitting a mortgage application.

Beginning in March 2026, companies will no longer be allowed to use trigger leads unless a borrower has given explicit consent, or the outreach comes from their existing lender, bank, or credit union. This is a great step towards protecting homebuyers and ensuring a more transparent mortgage process.
