Non-QM loans: Available flexibility
Non-QM loans are aimed at borrowers with financial profiles that don’t meet the requirements of a typical qualified mortgage. This often involves an inconsistent or nontraditional income structure, a major credit event or high debt. Features associated with non-QM loans include:
Alternative income documentation. Depending on the lender’s requirements, borrowers may demonstrate their ability to repay the loan using tax returns, bank statements, assets, or 1099s.
No waiting period after bankruptcy. Some lenders offer non-QM loans that cater to borrowers with a history of bankruptcy or foreclosure, allowing them to get a mortgage as soon as one day after the event. Comparatively, qualified mortgages may require a waiting period of one to four years after bankruptcy, and two to seven years after a foreclosure.
Higher debt limits. Qualified mortgages have a maximum debt-to-income ratio (the percentage of your income that goes toward monthly debt payments) of 43%, while some non-QM loans allow for ratios over 50%.
No government backing. Because non-QM loans don’t have to follow CFPB standards, they can’t be purchased by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, nor can they be backed by the Department of Veterans Affairs, U.S. Department of Agriculture, or the Federal Housing Administration. So instead, the lender is taking on all the risk of issuing the loan.
