1. Bank Statement Loans: These are particularly useful for self-employed individuals or small business owners who may not have traditional income documentation. Instead of W-2 forms or tax returns, lenders analyze bank statements (usually 12 to 24 months) to determine income based on cash flow.
2. Asset-Based Loans: Instead of income, these loans consider an individual’s liquid assets to qualify for a mortgage. Borrowers demonstrate they have enough assets to cover the loan balance, usually needing to show assets equivalent to a multiple of the loan amount.
3. Interest-Only Loans: These allow borrowers to pay only the interest on the mortgage for a certain period, usually 5 to 10 years, before larger, principal payments kick in. This can be beneficial for those who expect higher income in the future.
4. DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) Loans: Often used by real estate investors, these loans focus on the cash flow generated by the property rather than the personal income of the borrower. The lender examines whether the property’s income covers the mortgage payments.
5. Foreign National Loans: Designed for non-U.S. citizens who want to purchase property in the United States. These loans often require higher down payments and may have higher interest rates due to perceived higher risks.
6. Jumbo Loans with Non-QM Features: These are for loan amounts that exceed the conforming loan limits set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. They often incorporate other Non-QM features like alternative income verification or interest-only payments.
7. Credit Event Borrowers: For individuals who have recent credit events such as bankruptcies, foreclosures, or short sales in their financial history. These loans provide a pathway to homeownership, albeit typically at higher interest rates and with other risk-based adjustments.

Each of these Non-QM loan types is designed to accommodate different financial situations, providing flexibility that isn't usually available with conventional loans.
