There are currently no eligible non-conforming loan programs for your scenario: a 9+ unit investment property in California, 1st lien, rate/term refinance, DSCR income, recent major credit event (<4 years), and a $1,150,000 loan amount. All reviewed lenders require longer seasoning for major credit events or do not allow 9+ unit properties.


Lender & Program Review

Lender/Program9+ Units AllowedRecent Credit Event (<4 yrs) Allowed?DSCR IncomeLoan Amount OKResult/Reason Not Eligible
A&D Mortgage – DSCR (No DTI)YesNo (requires 4+ years)YesYesNot eligible: seasoning
Angel OakNoNot specifiedNoN/ANot eligible: property type
Arc HomeNoNoNoN/ANot eligible: property type
Deephaven – DSCR 5-9 UnitYesNo (requires 7+ years)YesYesNot eligible: seasoning
NQM FundingNoYes (with seasoning)YesYesNot eligible: property type

Key Disqualifiers

  • Recent Credit Event: All programs that allow 9+ units require at least 4–7 years since a major credit event. Your event is too recent.
  • Property Type: Most programs only allow up to 4 units. Even those that allow 9+ units (A&D Mortgage, Deephaven) do not allow recent credit events.
  • DSCR Income: Only a few programs allow DSCR income for large multifamily, but all require longer seasoning for credit events.

What Are Your Options?

  • If your major credit event is older than 4 years, you may become eligible for some programs.
  • If your property is 4 units or fewer, there are more options available even with a recent credit event.
  • If you have flexibility on property type or can wait until the seasoning period is met, let me know and I can re-check eligibility.
