Pricing a first-time investor loan under the new Non-QHEM investment business purpose eligibility path with Alt Doc Bank Statement income? Don't overlook how multiple pricing adjustments may affect the final numbers.

Here's what brokers need to know:
- First-Time Investor LLPA: Based on the borrower's investor experience status under the applicable eligibility path.
- Documentation-Type Adjustments: Alt Doc Bank Statement pricing is a separate consideration from Full Doc pricing.
- Adjustments Can Stack: The first-time investor LLPA doesn't automatically replace other applicable pricing adjustments.
- Price the Full Scenario: Review the complete file and confirm the combined pricing impact with your Account Executive (AE) before quoting an all-in rate.
The takeaway: Don't price by the headline. Price the whole scenario.
Have a first-time investor scenario to review? Call or email theLender today and let's work through the applicable pricing adjustments together.

A low-rate first mortgage doesn’t have to stand between your borrower and their equity.
If your borrower needs to access equity, a second lien may allow them to get the funds they need without replacing their favorable first-mortgage rate and terms.
Before recommending a cash-out refi, consider whether a second lien could be the more efficient solution.
Have a borrower with a low-rate first who needs equity? Call or email theLender today. Let's review it together.

New LLC? That could mean one less document to chase.

Under the updated Non-QHEM guidelines, an entity formed within 120 days before the Note date does not need to provide evidence of good standing. Standard entity documents still apply.

Have a scenario? Contact your Account Executive to review the requirements.
