Non-Conforming Loans

Non-Conforming Loans

     “Subprime” mortgage loans took a really bad rap as a result of the great recession of 2008, and though some product offerings at that time were terribly implemented, non-conforming loans have their place in the market.  Non-conforming loans are any product that doesn’t fit into a traditional product box (conventional, FHA, VA, USDA), and can be of great use to consumers with outside the box factors in place.  These products can help self-employed borrowers with difficult to document income.  They can also assist someone with poor credit & extenuating circumstances that deserves a home loan but cannot get one through traditional lending channels.Non-conforming loans, or “subprime” loans don’t always just involve a borrower, either.  Sometimes these products are necessary simply to accommodate a certain loan amount – for example, a large jumbo loan in a non-high cost area.  A home itself can also warrant the use of the subprime product – log homes, geodesic (dome) homes, or homes with large acreage, hobby farms, or other small income generating properties can all require the use of a non-conforming mortgage.

 

The fact is, despite their reputation, non-conforming loans can help make a borrower’s dream come true.  Just because their dreams don’t fit into a traditional box doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be pursued, and with our non-conforming products, we can bring home buying dreams into reality.
