Non-warrantable condos: when the building is the problem
Sometimes you qualify and the condo doesn't — too many rentals in the project, pending litigation, one owner holding too many units. Conventional lenders walk away; non-QM lenders underwrite the building on its merits. If a condo deal died over 'warrantability,' there's usually still a loan for it.
How much you'll put down
Most bank-statement programs start around 10% down, with better pricing at 15–20%+. If your credit or deposit history is on the lighter side, a larger down payment is often the lever that gets you approved.
12 vs. 24 months of statements
Lenders accept either 12 or 24 months of personal or business statements. Twelve months gets you to the finish line faster, while 24 months smooths out seasonal swings and often produces a higher, more defensible qualifying income.
Yes — it's self-employment income. Lenders aggregate deposits or 1099s across platforms; about two years of history is the norm. Route payouts into one account so every dollar is verifiable.
What is an asset depletion loan?
A non-QM program that converts verified liquid assets into monthly qualifying income — commonly assets divided over a set number of months. It suits retirees, business sellers, and high-net-worth borrowers without paychecks.
How much down payment do I need?
Most bank statement programs start around 10%, with stronger pricing at 15–20%+. A larger down payment can offset a lower credit score or thinner deposit history.
What is a bank statement loan?
It's a mortgage that qualifies self-employed borrowers on 12–24 months of bank deposits instead of tax returns. If your write-offs make your taxable income look low, this counts your real cash flow instead.
What is a P&L loan?
A profit-and-loss loan lets you qualify using a CPA-prepared P&L statement, sometimes with fewer bank statements. It's another non-QM path when bank-statement deposits alone don't tell the full story.
Do I need tax returns or W-2s?
No. Income is verified from your deposits (or 1099s/P&L), so no tax returns or W-2s are required to document income — just proof of self-employment and consistent statements.
