REALTOR® Resource: Issues that
       Alternative Financing Might Resolve
Buyers with one or more of these issues will find it very difficult to qualify for a conventional or government-insured
loan. Realtors should proceed with caution before submitting purchase offers for buyer’s with these issues:

✓    The buyer has one or more years of unfiled tax returns
✓    The buyer is married but the non-buying spouse is not available or unwilling to cooperate with the purchase
✓    All of the buyer’s income sources are cash and have not been reported for income tax purposes
✓    The buyer is self-employed with minimal net business income reported in recent tax years
✓    One or more of the buyers will not occupy the property as their principal residence
✓    The buyer’s assets are all cash and can’t be sourced
✓    The buyer discharged bankruptcy within the last 24 months or had a foreclosure less than three years ago
✓    The buyer’s Social Security number is not valid
✓    Buyer is a non-citizen and is not a permanent resident (green card holder) and they do not have a valid work
     authorization card
✓    The property the buyer wants to purchase has serious health and safety problems, sub-standard non-permitted
     improvements and can not be immediately occupied by the buyers

Barriers in Financing - How to Work Through Them
                   – Loan to Value (LTV) Basics

Loan / Value = LTV

For example, $400,000 Loan Amount divided by $500,000
Value Home equals 80% - % LTV

Loan + Down Payment Assistance (DPA) or 2nd Trust Deed (TD)
/ Value = CLTV or TLTV

For example, $400,000 1st Loan Amount + 50,000 2nd TD divided
by $500,000 Value Home equals 90% - % CLTV or % TLTV

Barriers in Financing - How to Work Through Them
                   – Debt to Income (DTI) Basics

Housing Payments / Gross Income = front end DTI

For example, $1,000 mortgage divided by $3,000 income equals 33%
front-end DTI

Monthly debts + Housing Payment / Gross Income = Back end ratio

For example, $400 auto payment + $100 in Credit Cards + $1,000
mortgage divided by $3,000 income equals 50% back-end DTI

Sound familiar?

                  Are you losing out on closing deals
                  because buyers are self-employed?
                  Quick scenario: Self-employed buyer makes
                  $200K/year, credit score of 758. He writes off
                  75% of his income. Now he’s left with $50K trying
                  to qualify for a jumbo loan…and he doesn’t
                  qualify.

                  Because of our Bank Statement program, we
                  approved the borrower for a $750K loan.

                  Buyer got the keys, seller got their proceeds
                  and everyone went home happy!

                  Are you losing out on closing deals
                  because buyers are investors?
                  Quick scenario: An investor is looking to purchase
                  his 19th investment home. His prior funding was
                  very costly because it was hard money with high
                  rates and fees. He was unable to qualify for a
                  mortgage using tax returns. After a rental analysis
                  was completed, he was able to qualify using the
                  Investor Cash Flow program.

                  The investor was able to purchase his 19th
                  home.

                  Are you losing out on closing
                  deals because borrowers cannot
                  qualify?
                  Quick scenario: A borrower recently sold their
                  multimillion dollar business. She started a new
                  business less than two years ago and so when
                  she tried to qualify for a loan, it was rejected
                  since she didn’t have a long enough self-
                  employment history. Her plans of moving into
                  her dream home were almost derailed.

                  Because of our Asset Qualifier program, we
                  approved the borrower and closed the loan.

                  We were able to save these deals
                  because we work with these types of
                  buyers:

                  • Self-employed with significant write-offs
