    Complex Income. Straightforward Approval.

    The most creditworthy borrowers are often the hardest to qualify conventionally. That's not a risk problem. It's a documentation problem. We solve it.

    WHY THE BEST BORROWERS GET DECLINED

    Your financial strength is real. The system just wasn't built to read it.

    The conventional bank review process is designed for one financial profile: a salaried employee with a W-2 and two years of tax returns that match. It is not designed for the business owner whose income runs through a company, the investor whose returns live in property cash flow, or the high-net-worth individual whose wealth is in assets rather than a pay stub.

    These borrowers are not credit risks. They are documentation risks — and that is an entirely solvable problem.

    CapitalSource structures approvals around what you actually have: bank deposits, financial statements, property cash flow, asset reserves, and equity position. There is a path. We find it.

    • Self-employed business owners and entrepreneurs
    • Real estate investors qualifying based on property cash flow
    • High-net-worth individuals with asset-based financial profiles
    • Borrowers with complex, irregular, or non-traditional income
    • Homeowners with substantial equity and a low rate they don't want to give up

    A DIFFERENT WAY TO QUALIFY

    We Start With Your Unique Financial Position. Not a Form.

    Where a conventional lender sees a documentation problem, we see a qualification path. CapitalSource structures approvals around what you actually have, not around what a standard underwriting checklist was designed to capture.

    QUALIFICATION PROGRAM
    WHO IT SERVES
    Bank Statement (12 or 24 month)
    Self-employed borrowers — deposits document income in place of tax returns
    DSCR
    Real estate investors — property cash flow qualifies the loan, not personal income
    Asset Depletion / Asset Qualifier
    High-net-worth borrowers with substantial assets, limited documentable income
    No Ratio
    Equity and asset-based approval — income is not calculated
    No Doc
    Minimal documentation — equity position and reserves driven
    P&L Only
    Self-employed borrowers using CPA-prepared profit & loss statements
    VOE (Verification of Employment)
    W-2 borrowers with income complexity or non-standard employment

    All loans subject to eligibility guidelines and credit approval.

    OUR SOLUTIONS

    Three Ways to Access the Equity You've Built.

    Every solution is structured around your existing position. We don't move you toward a product. We match the product to your situation.

    HELOC

    Revolving access to your equity without disturbing your existing mortgage rate. The right solution for borrowers who refinanced at historically low rates and won't give them up.

    CLIENT OUTCOMES

    Deals We've Closed.

    "I have excellent credit, owned my restaurant for eleven years and every bank said no because I didn’t have enough income showing on my tax returns. CapitalSource qualified me on the monthly deposits shown on our business bank statements and closed a cash-out refinance in 3 weeks."

    James K.
    Restaurant Owner, Los Angeles

    "I own six rental properties and my personal income doesn't look like much on paper. The DSCR program didn't ask for a single tax return. The deal closed on the property's cash flow alone."

    Michelle T.
    Real Estate Investor, Orange County

    "My bank told me that I did not have enough documentable income for a HELOC. CapitalSource structured a HELOC in about a week and kept my 3.1% first mortgage untouched."

    David P.
    Business Owner, Irvine
