What My Clients Have to Say:
"Interfirst and Jim provided us an enjoyable experience. Jim was great. Really easy to work with, not pushy at all, like some other lenders.Extremely responsive and helpful. Would definitely go back to him.
His style meshed well with me since I've been through this before. Might be a little too hands-off for a first-time home buyer, but I loved it. He got me a low rate and the lowest closing costs I could find. Hard not to be happy!"

FAQ's
What is an asset based loan?
Also known as an asset-qualifying or asset depletion loan, an asset based loan is a type of mortgage that allows you to qualify using liquid assets instead of income (tax returns).
To calculate income for an asset depletion loan, the lender will take the total amount of liquid assets and divide it by a certain number of months.
The number of months used can vary by lender, starting as high as 360 months for conventional loans. LoanBud takes the borrower’s total liquid assets and divides them by 60.
How do I know if an asset based mortgage is right for me?
Most asset-based mortgage customers have at least 110% of the amount they’re looking to borrow in assets. For example, if you want to purchase a $500,000 property, you will need to have at least $550,000 in liquid assets, investments, or retirement accounts to qualify for an asset depletion mortgage without proof of income.
Asset based loans are ideal for people who:
- Have a significant amount of assets
- Do not show enough net income on the tax returns to qualify for a conventional mortgage
- Are retired or are close to retirement
What are the requirements for an asset-based mortgage?
An asset-based mortgage could be a great fit if the value of your assets is significantly larger than your monthly income. However, you need to make sure that your assets can be used to qualify for a mortgage.
Qualifying assets include:
- Checking and/or savings accounts
- Investment accounts (stocks, bonds, and mutual funds)
- Retirement accounts (IRA or 401k)
- Certificates of deposits (CDs)
- Money market accounts
Here are examples of assets that cannot be used:
- Equity in real estate owned
- Automobiles, boats, or other non-liquid assets
- Gifts or loans
You will also need to meet a certain set of requirements in order to be considered for an asset-based mortgage.
Typically, your lender will require:
- A down payment of 25-30% of your home’s purchase price, although LoanBud can offer asset qualifying mortgages for as low as 15% down
- A credit score of 620 or higher, but above 680 is ideal
- Liquid assets of at least 110% of the requested loan amount
Can you refinance based on assets?
Yes, asset based loans can be used for both refinances and purchases. At LoanBud, asset based refinances are available as both a rate & term refinance or as a cash out refinance, up to 85% loan to value.
My High Net Worth Clients Don’t Get Denied a Mortgage Because of Tax Returns
At LoanBud, we know if you have enough assets to buy a home in cash, you are the kind of people who want to be successful. In order to be that way, you need a mortgage to buy your home. The problem is, even with significant liquid assets you may still struggle to get approved for a mortgage because of your income, which makes you feel frustrated and defeated. I believe that only qualifying people based on their tax returns is plain wrong.
I understand how frustrating it can be for those with significant assets to struggle with getting a mortgage. That’s why we allow our high net worth customers to qualify using eligible assets instead of tax returns.
Here’s how it works:
1) Schedule a Consultation
2) Know Your Options
3) Close Your Loan
