One of the biggest benefits of being a self-employed first-time homebuyer is access to government and private programs that can help with the down payment. These types of programs often require borrowers to provide less than the traditional 20% down, allowing them to purchase a home faster than if they had to accumulate a large down payment from their own savings.
Self-employed first-time homebuyers can often get better terms on their loans than those who are employed by someone else. It's not uncommon for banks to provide discounts in interest rates for those who have created their own business. Self-employed borrowers are also sometimes able to qualify for higher loan amounts, since they can provide evidence of higher income, or in some cases, of their total assets.
