Flexible Non-QM Loans in Delaware

Some borrowers benefit from exploring alternative underwriting options. A non-QM loan (non-qualified mortgage) does not meet certain Qualified Mortgage criteria. Available products, eligibility, costs, and risks vary by lender and loan.

Powered by Cornerstone First Mortgage, we have access to many exceptional property lending programs. That’s why we offer multiple solutions to meet the diverse needs of our clients. If you’ve found conventional loan requirements to be a hurdle, let’s explore how our non-QM programs can help you achieve your real estate goals.

Non-QM Solutions Based on Income

Our lenders offer several non-QM loan programs to meet the diverse needs of our clients here in Delaware. Program availability, documentation, credit requirements, and terms vary by lender. A loan officer can review which options fit your situation:

Bank Statement Loans: Some programs may use verified personal or business bank statements to assess income. Required documentation, eligible deposits, and expense calculations vary by lender. Ask which methods are available for your situation.

Asset Qualifier Loans: Some programs may use verified assets in qualification. Assets can also support qualification for certain Qualified Mortgages, so using assets does not automatically make a loan non-QM. Ask how eligible assets, reserves, and repayment capacity are assessed.

Mortgage Loan Options Based on Credit

We believe that a less-than-perfect credit score shouldn’t automatically disqualify you from homeownership. Our non-QM loan options provide pathways to financing for borrowers who may not meet the strict credit score requirements of conventional loans.

Mortgage Solutions Based on Loan Type

Jumbo Non-QM Loans: Jumbo refers to a loan amount above the applicable conforming limit; QM status is a separate classification. Some jumbo loans are Qualified Mortgages and some are non-QM. Eligibility and underwriting depend on the specific program.

DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) Loans: Some investment-property programs assess rental income relative to housing debt service. Required ratios, rental analysis, credit, reserves, documentation, and terms vary by lender. Business-purpose investment loans have different requirements from consumer mortgages; a DSCR label alone does not establish non-QM status. Ask a loan officer which options are currently available.
