Question 1

Can I use both 1099s and bank statements to qualify?

Accepted Answer

Some lenders allow it, but most want one primary income method. A broker can find lenders who blend both when it strengthens your file.

Question 2

Do these loans work for Live Oak property types?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Both non-QM programs work on single-family homes and multi-unit properties common in Sutter County.

Question 3

What credit score do I need for either loan?

Accepted Answer

Most non-QM lenders want at least a 620. Stronger scores get better pricing on both 1099 and bank statement programs.

Question 4

How much can I borrow with a non-QM loan in Live Oak?

Accepted Answer

Loan limits depend on your income documentation and lender. Non-QM loans often go above conventional limits for qualified borrowers.

Question 5

Are bank statement loan rates higher than 1099 loan rates?

Accepted Answer

Rates depend on your file, not just the program. Rates vary by borrower profile and market conditions across both loan types.

Question 6

How long does it take to close a non-QM loan in California?

Accepted Answer

Expect 30 to 45 days for most non-QM loans. Having clean documentation ready speeds up the process significantly.
