How to Fill Out a Net Worth Statement

1

List Your Liquid Assets

Start with cash. Include checking accounts, savings accounts, money market funds, and CDs. Use the current balance as of today's date.

Tip: Don't include business accounts here unless you are a sole proprietor. Keep personal and business assets separate.
2

Value Your Real Estate

List all properties you own. For the value, use a realistic market estimate (like a recent appraisal or Zestimate), not necessarily what you paid for it.

3

Add Retirement & Investments

Include 401(k)s, IRAs, and brokerage accounts. Note that lenders may discount these values (e.g., counting only 60-70% of retirement accounts) to account for taxes and withdrawal penalties.

4

Calculate Liabilities

List every debt: mortgages, car loans, student loans, and credit card balances. Be accurate—lenders will pull your credit report to verify this.

Who Needs a Net Worth Statement?

Business Borrowers

Applying for a business loan or line of credit? Lenders almost always require a personal financial statement from any owner with >20% stake.

Real Estate Investors

When buying investment property, banks need to see your liquidity and global cash flow. A strong net worth statement is your resume.

SBA Loan Applicants

The SBA requires Form 413 for 7(a) and 504 loans. Our templates ensure you have all the data organized to fill this out quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a net worth statement template?

A net worth statement template is a document that lists your assets (what you own) and liabilities (what you owe) to calculate your total net worth. It is often required by lenders for loan applications.

Can I use this template for SBA loans?

Yes, while the SBA has its own Form 413, many lenders accept a standard personal financial statement as long as it includes all required schedules. StatementsReady generates formats compatible with SBA requirements.

How often should I update my net worth statement?

For existing commercial loans, lenders typically require an annual update. However, it's best practice to update it quarterly to track your financial progress.

What is the difference between a balance sheet and a net worth statement?

They are essentially the same thing. In personal finance, it's called a "Personal Financial Statement" or "Net Worth Statement." In business accounting, it's called a "Balance Sheet."
