What is a 

Niche or Non-QM Loan?

A Niche or Non-QM (Non-Qualified Mortgage) loan is a type of mortgage loan that doesn't meet the typical eligibility requirements set by government agencies (like FHA, VA, or conforming loan programs) or the standards set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. These loans are designed for borrowers who may not qualify for traditional mortgage loans due to unique circumstances or financial situations.
