Wholesale Lenders Shopped

Adam Styer | Mortgage Solutions LP (NMLS #513013) is Austin's independent mortgage broker for complicated income — self-employed, 1099, jumbo, DSCR, the files banks decline. 40+ wholesale lenders, 24-hour pre-approvals, 1,000+ loans closed since 2017.

Deals Banks Said No To

Composite scenarios reflecting the kind of files I close every month. Names and exact numbers changed to protect client privacy.

Self-Employed Jumbo

$1.2M Westlake purchase — 3 banks declined

The file: S-corp owner, write-offs killed his tax-return income. Banks saw "low W-2 wages" and bounced him.

What I did: Switched him to a 24-month bank statement program. Counted real business deposits instead of taxable income.

Outcome: Closed in 21 days at a rate within 0.25% of conventional pricing. Seller never knew it was a Non-QM file.

DSCR Investor

4-property Austin STR portfolio — no personal income docs

The file: Investor wanted to scale to 4 short-term rentals. Conventional cap of 10 financed properties + tax-return income wasn't going to support it.

What I did: Used DSCR loans qualifying off projected rents — no W-2s, no tax returns. Held title in LLC vesting for asset protection.

Outcome: Three properties closed in 60 days. Fourth funded the month after. All STR-eligible.

First-Time Buyer Rescue

$485K Pflugerville — switched mid-contract with 10 days to close

The file: Buyer's original lender pulled the appraisal late, hit underwriting snags, and threatened to push the closing date. Earnest money at risk.

What I did: Took the file, kept the appraisal transfer, ran a parallel desktop underwrite. Beat the original lender's rate by 0.375%.

Outcome: Closed on the contract date. Buyer saved roughly $90/mo on payment and kept their earnest money intact.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Self-employed Austin borrowers can qualify using bank statement loans (12 or 24 months of deposits), 1099-only programs, P&L loans, or asset depletion — tax returns may not need to be the primary income document. These non-QM programs underwrite actual cash flow, not the income your write-offs reduced. Adam matches each borrower to the right wholesale lender across 40+ programs.

A DSCR loan qualifies real estate investors on a property's rental income — not personal income. DSCR = gross rent ÷ PITIA. Most lenders prefer 1.0+, but no-ratio programs exist. Works for long-term, short-term (Airbnb/Vrbo), and small multifamily across Texas. Down payments start at 20–25%, no cap on properties owned, LLC vesting allowed.

Asset depletion uses liquid assets to create qualifying monthly income — for retirees, founders post-exit, and HNW borrowers without W‑2 income. Lenders divide eligible assets (after-tax investments and retirement accounts) by 60, 84, 120, 240, or 360 months. Freddie §5307.1 uses 240, Fannie uses 360. The right lender match changes qualifying income dramatically.

Complex-income borrowers — self-employed owners, K‑1 partners, S‑corp owners, investors, foreign nationals, and HNW individuals — can use bank statement, 1099-only, P&L only, asset depletion, DSCR, jumbo (above $832,750 in Travis County for 2026), and one-time-close construction. Adam compares 40+ wholesale lenders to maximize qualifying income per scenario.

Most pre-approvals are issued within one business day of a complete application. Bank statement, DSCR, and other non-QM loan timelines depend on program, property, appraisal, title, and documentation. Fast underwriting matters in Austin's purchase market — competitive offers often need rapid funding to win against cash buyers. Start your pre-approval here or call (512) 956-6010.
