Refinance With Peace of Mind Built-in
Are you having difficulty qualifying for a mortgage? A Non-QM mortgage could help you reach your goal of homeownership!
Mortgages are not “one size fits all”. Interstate Home Loan Center knows that!
What is a Non-QM Loan?
A Non-QM loan, or non qualified mortgage, is a loan that is not required to meet standard agency documentation requirements from the CFPB. Non-QM loans are not insured, guaranteed, or backed by FHA, VA, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. Due to their more versatile and flexible qualification guidelines, many can secure financing on a new home who wouldn’t normally meet standard lending requirements.
Who is a good candidate for a Non-QM loan?
- Self-employed and small business owners
- Real Estate Investors
- Retirees
- Foreign Nationals
- Commission Based Workers
- People with high debt
- Borrowers who would otherwise not meet the mortgage requirement for Conforming loans
