The Ins & Outs
How it Works
A WVOE (Written Verification of Employment) mortgage allows eligible borrowers to qualify using income verified directly through their employer rather than relying on traditional income documentation such as tax returns. The employer completes a written verification documenting the borrower's employment and qualifying income.
WVOE loan programs can provide an alternative financing solution for borrowers with established employment who may benefit from a simplified approach to income documentation. Purchase and refinance options may be available depending on the lender and program.
