    Chicago, Illinois skyline — ABS Home Mortgage bank statement and non-QM home loans

    Program availability and eligibility as of October 10, 2026; subject to change and underwriting.

    What non-QM means

    Non-QM loans fall outside the federal Qualified Mortgage definition. We use them when income is hard to show on tax returns. Non-QM loans still follow federal ability-to-repay rules, and we evaluate your ability to repay using the documentation and factors each program allows.

    Non-QM loan programs

    Bank statement loans

    We qualify you using bank statements in place of tax returns, with statements for the program's required period. Eligibility is subject to underwriting.

    No-income-documentation loans for primary homes

    We offer a newer non-QM program for owner-occupied primary residences only that does not require income documentation. Maximum loan-to-value of 80%. Minimum credit score and other guidelines may apply. We evaluate credit, assets, the property and other program factors, subject to underwriting.

    DSCR loans for investment properties

    For rental properties, we offer DSCR loans that qualify the property on its rental income rather than personal tax returns, subject to program guidelines and underwriting.

    Asset depletion (asset utilization) loans

    We qualify you using liquid assets such as savings, investments and retirement accounts converted into qualifying income. This may fit retirees or high-net-worth borrowers with modest reported income, subject to program guidelines and underwriting.

    1099 / P&L loans

    We qualify self-employed, commission and gig-economy borrowers using 1099s or a CPA-prepared profit-and-loss statement, subject to program guidelines and underwriting.

    Who it fits

    • Self-employed and 1099 borrowers
    • Business owners whose tax returns show heavy write-offs
    • Borrowers with variable or seasonal income
    • Borrowers who recently changed income structure

    We review your borrower and property details together. Eligibility is subject to program guidelines and underwriting.

    Our purchase closing timeline

    Our average purchase close is 21 calendar days; timelines vary by file and no timeline is guaranteed.

    As of October 10, 2026; subject to change. Documentation, appraisal and underwriting can affect the timeline.

    Documents we typically ask for

    • ID
    • Bank statements for the program's required period
    • Proof of the business or self-employment where applicable
    • Asset statements
    • Credit authorization
    • Purchase contract or current mortgage statement for a refinance

    The no-income-documentation program relies on credit, assets and other program guidelines instead of income documents. We confirm which documents your program requires; additional documentation may be needed.
