What Is Asset Depletion?

Asset depletion is a Non‑QM financing method that allows borrowers to use their liquid assets as an income proxy. Instead of relying on traditional employment income, eligible assets are amortized over a set term to calculate qualifying income. This option still requires an Ability‑to‑Repay (ATR) assessment, including a review of credit, assets, housing payments, and existing debts.


Who This May Benefit

Asset depletion loans are especially helpful for:

  • Retirees with significant savings
  • High‑net‑worth borrowers
  • Business owners with substantial liquid assets
  • Borrowers who prefer to qualify using assets rather than income


Eligible Assets & Reserves

Depending on the program, qualifying assets may include:

  • Bank accounts
  • Brokerage accounts
  • Retirement accounts (program‑specific rules apply)
  • Other verifiable liquid assets


Signs You May Qualify for an Adjustable Rate Mortgage

An ARM may be a strong fit if you:

  • Plan to sell or refinance within a few years
  • Expect your income to increase over time
  • Are comfortable with potential rate adjustments
  • Want lower initial monthly payments
  • Hope to benefit from falling interest rates


If these situations apply to you, an ARM could be a strategic option. Our team can help you evaluate your circumstances and choose the right path.


Why Consider an Adjustable Rate Mortgage?

Adjustable Rate Mortgages offer several advantages:

  • Lower initial interest rates than fixed‑rate loans
  • Potential for reduced payments if rates decline
  • Flexibility for homeowners planning to move or refinance
  • Opportunity to qualify for a larger loan amount
  • Strong fit for borrowers with rising income trajectories


Ameritrust Mortgage will help you weigh these benefits against your long‑term financial goals to determine whether an ARM is the right solution.
