Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to questions about this loan we heard from people like you during research.
What Makes a Loan Non-QM?
It doesn’t conform to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac underwriting rules but still meets sound lending standards.
Can I Use Assets to Qualify?

Is There Mortgage Insurance?
Not typically. Non-QM loans often skip MI even with lower down payments.
Are Non-QM Rates Higher?

What If I Had a Bankruptcy?
Slightly higher than conventional, but much more flexible with underwriting.
