What is a Non-QM Loan?
A Non-QM (Non-Qualified Mortgage) loan offers flexible underwriting standards for borrowers with unique financial situations. Unlike traditional loans, Non-QM loans may use alternative income documentation—including bank statements or tax returns—to verify your income.
Non-QM loans are a great alternative for borrowers who don't fit in the "traditional" lending box, including:
- Self-employed borrowers and freelancers
- Business owners
- Real estate investors
- Borrowers with high debt-to-income ratios or unconventional income streams
Non-QM loans offer:
- Flexible income verification
- Higher DTI (debt-to-income) allowances
- Expanded qualification options
- A variety of flexible mortgage options
all income scenarios deserve a personalized, no-nonsense mortgage. With our simple, four-step process, we make non-qm loans as smooth and transparent as possible.
