The first lender that I went to for a loan just told me that they can not provide me with a mortgage because my income "on paper" was too low.

You can forget any large bank like Wells boA or large regional s I highly doubt with your scenario they will provide any credit to you.then you have the Brokers who are responding.. they set you up with a direct HML that does vertical Rates 10 to 15%  and points 3 to 6.. of which the brokers take 2 to 4 points for setting these up for you. 

Additionally, depending on your unique requirements and tastes, speaking with a local real estate agent might offer insightful advice.If you have more specific criteria or questions about any of these areas, feel free to share, and I can provide more targeted information. 

Don't be nervous to call and ask questions, most people are happy to provide clarity so the process can go smoothly.
