What is an Asset Depletion Mortgage?
An asset depletion mortgage, also referred to as an asset-based mortgage, allows borrowers to qualify for a mortgage based on their liquid assets rather than their income. Thus, the borrower will not be required to provide tax returns when applying for the loan. An asset-based mortgage is excellent for someone who has trouble showing consistent income but has significant asset balances.
Who May Benefit from an Asset Depletion Mortgage?
This program is excellent for someone who has trouble showing consistent income but has significant asset balances. This may include:
- Self-employed borrowers who show minimal income
- A borrower with little to no income but significant assets
- A borrower who is retired or soon to be retired
What Assets are Eligible for Qualification?
Assets refer to funds that can be liquidated (converted to cash or cash equivalents) in 30 days.
- Stocks
- Bonds
- Checking or savings account funds
- Retirement account funds
How Does an Asset Depletion Mortgage Work?
Your assets will be depleted using a formula to determine a monthly cash flow, used as a monthly income reference for the loan.
