What Are Non-QM Loans?

When traditional mortgage guidelines don’t fit your financial situation, a Non-QM loan may offer another path to home financing.

Non-QM, or Non-Qualified Mortgage, loans are designed for borrowers who may not qualify for a conventional mortgage due to unique income sources, higher debt-to-income ratios, or certain credit events. They offer more flexibility in how income and financial qualifications are evaluated. While these loans can provide more options, they may also come with different qualification requirements, including higher down payments or interest rates.

Common Types of Non-QM Loans:

• Bank Statement Loans: Use bank deposits to help verify income.

• Asset Depletion Loans: Calculate qualifying income based on a percentage of eligible assets.

• DSCR Loans: Help finance investment properties based on the property's expected rental income.

Is a Non-QM Loan Right for You?

A Non-QM loan isn't for everyone, but it can provide an alternative for borrowers who don't fit neatly into traditional mortgage guidelines. Your financial situation, goals, and the type of property you're purchasing will all play a role in determining which loan options may be available.
