First investment property-Denied mortgage

[Aaron Pike]

Hi all,

I had saved up about 50K for a downpayment and have approx. 75K in other investments as reserves but made the mistake of switching my employment to all self-employed last year and I was denied a loan because I can't prove current income till I file my 2016 taxes. I have no debt (besides nominal credit card expenditures which are paid off at the end of the month), 786 credit score, plenty of money for a down payment and reserves but what are my other options to getting a loan?

I have read other posts about partnering up with other investors or commercial lenders being a possibility. Anything else?

Thanks!
