I am going to assume you don't declare that income to the IRS on your tax return and pay the proper amount of taxes on it.If it is not on your last two years of tax returns,you will get no credit for it from the traditional banks and lenders which means you ability to borrow money will be based solely on what little you do declare and have taxed properly.Your savings and checking account s and stock holdings are irrelevant,only your verifiable monthly and yearly income.Your only choice would be a hard money lender at an enormous interest rate.
