Yes — many Non-QM bank statement programs finance second homes for self-employed borrowers who qualify on deposits, with occupancy rules and usually more equity than a primary purchase.

Condo and unique properties case-by-case
Second-home rules vary by investor and change without notice. Not a guarantee of approval.
Mislabeling occupancy is one of the fastest ways to stall a Non-QM file.
You will occupy the property for personal use part of the year, keep exclusive control, and are not placing it on long-term rental contracts.
Full-time tenants, Airbnb as the business model, or no personal-use intent usually means investment guidelines — often with more down payment or a DSCR path.
Underwriters still want you to afford both homes. Strong deposit income helps, but reserves and existing housing costs matter.
Be ready to explain distance from your primary, intended use days, and why the property is not an income play.
Ryan & Steve confirm occupancy early, then match your deposit history to investors that allow second homes on bank statement income.
We size down payment and reserves against both housing payments so the pre-approval letter reflects a realistic second-home scenario — not a primary LTV you cannot use.
If rental income is the real story, we compare bank statement investment options with DSCR so you pick the cleaner path.

Yes — many Non-QM bank statement programs allow second-home purchases when you meet occupancy rules, typically with more equity than a primary residence. Guidelines vary by investor.
Generally a property you occupy part of the year for personal use — not rented full-time as an investment. Underwriters look for reasonable distance, exclusive control, and no long-term rental intent.
Often 15–25%+ depending on credit, reserves, and investor. Second-home LTVs are usually tighter than primary bank statement purchases.
Yes. Income still comes from 12–24 months of eligible personal or business deposits — tax returns are not the income path. You also need to support both housing payments and reserves.
