Unlocking Homeownership with Non-Traditional Loans
The demand for financing among non-traditional borrowers—self-employed individuals, non-traditional wage earners, retirees, and more—is at an all-time high. Many of these borrowers face challenges securing home loans through traditional lending channels due to stringent income verification requirements. This represents an underserved market that you can tap into by partnering with a Non-QM wholesale lender like Champions Funding. At North Star Mortgage Network, we are proud to offer tailored solutions to help these borrowers achieve their homeownership dreams.
Why Choose Non-Traditional Loans?
Non-traditional loans, also known as Non-QM (Non-Qualified Mortgage) loans, provide flexible financing solutions for borrowers who don’t fit the conventional lending mold. Whether due to unique income sources or non-traditional employment, these borrowers need alternative options to secure a mortgage. Our partnership with Champions Funding allows us to provide innovative loan products, including CDFI rate enhancements for eligible borrowers, making homeownership more accessible and affordable.
