Asset Qualifier Loans

Strong balance sheet, modest income on paper — your assets qualify.

What it is

A Non-QM program that converts your liquid assets — savings, investments, retirement — into qualifying income, no employment required.

How it works

The lender takes eligible assets and divides them over a fixed period (often 60–84 months) to create a monthly income figure. Enough assets, and the loan stands on them alone.

Who it fits

Retirees and near-retirees, sellers of businesses or property sitting on proceeds, and investors between liquidity events.

What you'll need

Statements proving the assets (usually 2–3 months), standard credit review, and a typical 20–25% down payment or equity position.

Good to know

You don't spend the assets — they just need to exist and be verifiable. Your money keeps working while it qualifies you.
