No Income Loans

When your income doesn’t fit a pay stub.

No income / asset-based programs qualify borrowers without traditional pay stubs, W-2s, or tax returns — for a purchase or a refinance — built for situations where conventional income documentation doesn't tell the full story.

Holding significant liquid assets

Some no-income programs qualify borrowers based on liquid assets rather than employment income.

02

Retired and living off investments

If your income doesn't come from a traditional paycheck, an asset-based approach can reflect your actual financial picture.

03

An investor between traditional income sources

A flexible option when income documentation doesn't tell the full story.

04

Refinancing without traditional income documentation

No-income and asset-based refinance options follow the same alternative qualification approach as a purchase, whether you're lowering your rate or taking cash out.

FAQ

Common questions

What does “no income” verification mean?

These non-QM programs don't require traditional pay stubs, W-2s, or tax returns to document income — qualification is typically based on assets, the property, or other alternative factors.

Are these loans harder to qualify for?

They often come with tradeoffs like larger down payments, higher rates, or reserve requirements to offset the reduced documentation, but they can be the right fit when traditional documentation isn't available.

Can a no-income loan be used to refinance?

Yes — these programs apply to refinances as well as purchases, using an asset-based or alternative qualification approach instead of traditional income documentation, whether you want to lower your rate or access equity.
