Non-QM Financing Loans

Entrepreneur & Business Owner Solutions Smart mortgage solutions for self-employed buyers, investors, and complex income scenarios.

What Is a Non-QM Loan?

A Non-QM (Non-Qualified Mortgage) loan is a mortgage that does not meet the strict underwriting guidelines required by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or government agencies. Instead of relying solely on tax returns and W-2s, Non-QM loans use alternative documentation to evaluate a borrower’s true ability to repay. 

At Keystone Lending, Non-QM financing is one of our specialties. We work with self-employed professionals, real estate investors, foreign nationals, ITIN borrowers, and anyone whose income looks different on paper than it does in real life. If a big bank turned you down, we want to hear your story.
