Loan Programs

Every path to financing, under one strategy.

We work with multiple lenders and program types, so the plan gets built around your situation — not the other way around. Browse by what you're trying to do, or by program type below.

By Purpose

What are you trying to do?

Purchase

Financing to buy your next home — first-time or fifth-time.

Refinance

Replace your current mortgage with new terms, rate, or structure.

Bridge Loan

Buy your next property before your current one sells.

HELOC

A revolving line of credit secured by your home's equity.

Second Mortgage

An additional loan against your equity, alongside your first.

By Program Type

Find the program that fits.

Conventional

Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac

Loans that follow Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines. Typically the strongest terms available for borrowers with solid credit and fully documented income.

FHA

Government-backed

Government-backed financing with lower down payment and credit requirements — a common fit for first-time buyers.

VA

Veterans & service members

Government-backed loans for eligible veterans and active-duty service members, often with no down payment required.

Non-QM

Alternative documentation

Loan programs built outside standard qualified-mortgage guidelines — for borrowers whose income, credit, or property doesn't fit a conventional box. AIM Lending has access to the full range of Non-QM options on the market, detailed below.

Non-QM, in Full

Every Non-QM option, in plain terms.
