Meet Adam Styer
Originally from Ohio (Go Bucks), Adam has called Austin home for over 16 years — and loved it so much his whole family followed him here. He's spent the last decade helping Austin families achieve the dream of homeownership through honest conversation, expert guidance, and a commitment to transparency.
As a mortgage advisor with HyperSmart Home Loans, Adam compares available lender, program, pricing, and structure options for each scenario. He's a proud husband to Britney Jo, dad to three amazing kids, and over 10 years sober. Faith, family, fitness, and finance drive everything he does.
He has also bought, sold, renovated, financed, and operated real estate himself — including long-term rentals, short-term rentals, flips, multifamily, and commercial ownership interests. Adam and Britney Jo personally operate Adobe Creek Ranch, an approximately 25-acre group rental near Fredericksburg. That firsthand experience helps him look beyond whether a loan can close to how the financing may work once real ownership begins.
Adam builds relationships — not just transactions. When he's not closing loans, you'll find him with his family, active in Austin's sober community, or staying sharp on market trends to give his clients an edge.

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 once your file is complete. 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. Send the short scenario or call (512) 956-6010.
