Frequently asked questions
- What assets count for an asset qualifier / asset depletion loan?
- Liquid and near-liquid assets: checking, savings, money market, brokerage accounts (stocks, bonds, mutual funds — sometimes with a 10–20% haircut), and retirement accounts (typically 70–80% of balance counts to haircut for tax + early-withdrawal). Real estate equity, business equity, and illiquid assets generally don't count.
- How is qualifying income calculated from my assets?
- Liquid assets are divided by 60, 84, or 120 months depending on program. A $2M liquid base divided over 84 months = $23,809/month qualifying income — enough to support roughly a $2.5M mortgage at current rates, with zero income documentation required.
- Do I have to prove I've held the assets for a specific time?
- Most programs require 60 days of asset seasoning — you can't deposit $2M the week before you apply. Two months of statements showing the assets in place is standard. Recently-inherited assets can qualify with estate documentation.
