Non-QM Loans
Flexible Mortgage Options for Unique Income Situations in Austin & Central Texas
Whether you’re buying in Austin, Cedar Park, Leander, Round Rock, or anywhere across Central Texas, Non-QM loans (Non-Qualified Mortgage loans) provide powerful solutions for buyers whose income or financial profile doesn’t fit traditional lending guidelines.
Think of Non-QM as the “real life happens” loan category — designed for entrepreneurs, investors, retirees, 1099 earners, newly self-employed buyers, and anyone whose story is bigger than a tax return.
Non-QM Loans in Texas
When you’re exploring Non-QM options, you need someone who actually understands the quirks behind bank statements, DSCR, P&L-only, and asset-based programs — not someone who just “kind of knows they exist.” That’s where I come in. I specialize in helping borrowers whose income doesn’t fit neatly inside a standard box, and I break everything down in a way that actually makes sense.
With access to a wide network of investor-friendly Non-QM lenders, I can compare multiple programs to find the one that fits your exact situation instead of forcing you into a one-size-fits-all loan. My process is fast, transparent, and designed to help you feel confident when you're making offers in a competitive Austin market. And above all, you’ll get straight talk, smart strategy, and a loan plan built around your real financial story — not just your tax return.
