Non-QM volume in 2024 was nearly double that of 2023. In 2025, it outperformed both VA loans and the 15-year fixed. The borrowers are there. The question is whether you have the platform to serve them.
Conventional and FHA margins keep shrinking. More loan officers are chasing fewer qualified borrowers — while a growing segment of self-employed, investor, and ITIN borrowers goes unserved.
Bank statement earners, real estate investors, gig workers, and ITIN borrowers need financing. They just need a lender willing to do the work. Most lenders aren’t set up for it. MegaStar is.
There’s a real learning curve — but at MegaStar, you don’t navigate it alone. Our technology shows you how to qualify the deal before you ever submit it.
Watch how MegaStar loan officers are expanding their pipelines and winning business their competitors can’t touch.

Use a 12-month Profit & Loss statement prepared by a CPA to document income. A faster path to qualification for business owners with complex financials.

Non-QM (Non-Qualified Mortgage) refers to loans that don’t meet the standard documentation requirements of conventional, FHA, VA, or USDA loans. Non-QM products allow borrowers to qualify using alternative income documentation such as bank statements, P&L statements, DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio), and more. Non-QM is not subprime — it’s a way to qualify today’s borrower.
Yes. Non-QM volume nearly doubled from 2023 to 2024, and continued growing through 2025, outperforming both VA loans and the 15-year fixed product. It represents one of the fastest-growing segments in the mortgage industry.
