Loan Programs

Investor Specialty Financing (Non-QM)

Investor specialty financing, also known as non-qualified mortgage (Non-QM) loans, is designed for borrowers with unique financial situations that don’t fit the criteria of traditional loans. Ideal for real estate investors, self-employed individuals, or those with non-traditional income documentation, these loans offer flexible options for purchasing properties. With fewer restrictions on income verification and credit history, Non-QM loans provide an alternative path to financing for those who may not qualify through conventional means.

Here's what you'll need to get started.

Minimum Credit Score

A minimum credit score of 620 is typically required to qualify for a Non-QM loan, though some programs may have different requirements based on the lender’s guidelines.

Instead of traditional W-2s and tax returns, borrowers can qualify using alternative income documentation, such as 12 or 24 months of bank statements, business profit and loss statements, and balance sheets.

Down Payment

A minimum down payment of 20% or greater is generally required, though the exact amount can vary depending on the specific loan program and borrower’s profile.

Non-QM loans may allow a DTI ratio of up to 50%, offering more flexibility than traditional loans.
