Investor / Non-QM

Mortgages for the self-employed

Qualify using your bank statements instead of tax returns. Non-QM loans are built for business owners, freelancers, and investors whose income doesn't fit a traditional box.

What is a bank statement loan?

Bank statement loans (a type of Non-QM, or "non-qualified mortgage") let self-employed borrowers qualify based on deposits shown in 12–24 months of bank statements rather than tax returns. They're ideal for entrepreneurs whose write-offs lower their taxable income but who have strong real cash flow.

As a broker, BayPort matches you with the Non-QM program and lender that best fits your situation.
