Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Non-QM Loan program?
Non-Qualified Mortgage (Non-QM) loans are alternative financing products that don't meet the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's Qualified Mortgage standards, offering flexibility for borrowers with unique financial situations.

Request a free quote or apply online, then a TPRG Capital loan officer will review your goals and recommend the best non-qm loans option for your situation. Call (972) 679-1613 to get started.
Is a Non-QM loan the same as subprime?
No. Non-QM loans are fully underwritten with verified ability to repay — the “non” refers to documentation style, not borrower quality. Many Non-QM borrowers are high earners whose finances simply do not fit standard boxes.
Who should consider a Non-QM loan?
Self-employed borrowers, real estate investors, foreign nationals, retirees with strong assets, and anyone recovering from a credit event who does not want to wait out standard seasoning periods.
Which Non-QM programs does TPRG Capital offer?
DSCR loans, bank statement loans, asset depletion loans, fix and flip financing, and foreign national programs — the full investor and entrepreneur toolkit, compared side by side so you can see the trade-offs.
Can I refinance from a Non-QM loan into a conventional loan later?
Yes, and many borrowers plan it that way: use Non-QM flexibility to acquire now, then refinance into conventional terms once tax returns or seasoning catch up. We help you design that path from the start.

Non-QM means the loan sits outside the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s Qualified Mortgage definition. That is a documentation and structure distinction, not a quality one. These loans are fully underwritten; they simply prove income with different evidence.
Which evidence depends on how you actually earn. Bank statement programs read deposits over twelve or twenty-four months. Asset depletion converts documented liquid assets into qualifying income. DSCR uses the property’s rent. A self-employed borrower whose tax return understates real cash flow is the archetypal case — the money is there, it just does not appear where an automated engine looks.
Because each investor writes its own guidelines, pricing and flexibility vary more here than on agency loans. That variation is precisely why a broker matters on a Non-QM file: the same borrower can receive materially different answers from different investors on the same week.
Why borrowers choose Non-QM Loans
We diagnose why traditional guidelines mis-read your situation, then choose from bank statement, asset-based, and investor programs to fix the mismatch.
Non-QM files reward lender judgment; your loan officer packages the story behind your numbers so common-sense underwriting can say yes.
