How it works

Start with the features that shape the decision.

Occupancy matters

A second home must meet applicable personal-use, location and occupancy requirements and cannot simply be an investment property labeled differently.

Documentation choices

Qualified borrowers may have traditional or alternative-income documentation options depending on the program.

Reserves and existing housing

The review considers current housing obligations, liquidity, credit and the new property’s total payment.

Plan before you apply

Details to review with Joe.

Explain the intended use of the property clearly.
Discuss any rental plans before choosing a loan.
Budget for taxes, insurance, association dues and maintenance.
Compare conventional and Non-QM pricing and reserve requirements.
