No Income Verification

Loans where your income is not requested or verified with as little as 10% down are stated income loans. There are several varieties of the "no-doc" loan today. The type of loan that is best suited for a particular borrower depends on that borrower's situation. Some borrowers choose not to disclose employment, income, or asset information, while others may be willing to disclose employment and asset information but not income. Still others might be willing to disclose income but select a program that does not calculate debt-to-income ratios, allowing those borrowers to exceed the traditional guidelines in order to qualify for a larger mortgage amount. With all the different variations of the no-doc loan, there is definitely a mortgage program for today's non-conventional borrowers.

80/15/5

This is a loan which carries a second mortgage for up to 15% of the purchase price of the property. It is usually used when wishing to avoid PMI insurance or to keep your first mortgage under the FNMA/FHLMC limit to avoid Jumbo rates. The borrower puts down a 5% down payment and then finances a first mortgage up to the FNMA/FHLMC limit and a second mortgage of up to 15% of the purchase price. Other variations are 80/10/10 or 75/15/5.
