EXIT 1

A bank statement or P&L loan

Which exit is yours?

Each of these loans exists for a reason the bank's checklist can't see. Here's what each one is for, in plain English, and what it takes.

EXIT 1

Self-employed

Bank statement P&L

Qualify on what your business actually brings in.

Your tax return shows what's left after write-offs, which is why a bank can say you earn too little. These loans look at the deposits going into your business instead.

EXIT 2

Rental property

DSCR

Let the rent qualify the loan.

For investment property, a DSCR loan compares the property's rent to its monthly payment. Your personal income and tax returns aren't the deciding factor.

  • The full monthly payment, including taxes, insurance and any HOA
  • An investment property, not the home you live in
EXIT 3

Home equity

Second TD

Get cash out without giving up your low rate.

A second trust deed is a separate loan behind your current mortgage. Your first loan, and its rate, stay exactly as they are.

Turned down

Ken looks again

A bank's no is usually one checklist's no.

Banks mostly offer standard loans with fixed rules. Ken works only with loans outside those rules and looks at the whole picture, including business-purpose and asset-based options and short-term bridge loans.

What it takes

  • The reason you were turned down, if you have it
  • A few basics about the property and what you're trying to do

How it works

Four steps, and you talk to the same person the whole way.

  1. Tell Ken your situation

    Fill in the sentence above, or text 949-244-6405. A few basics are enough. No documents yet.

  2. Ken reviews it

    The same business day when possible. He'll ask the two or three questions that actually matter for your file.

  3. Documents go through a secure link

    If there's a path, you get a secure upload link for your loan. Never email your documents or send them through a website form.

  4. You get a straight answer

    Terms when there's a path. A clear reason when there isn't.
