Private Wealth Mortgage · Portfolio Lending

When Your Loan Doesn't Fit the Box, You Need Someone Who Builds Custom.

Jumbo and portfolio mortgage solutions for high-net-worth borrowers. Complex income, multiple properties, foreign nationals, trust-held assets: Sean structures what others can't. Backed by a national portfolio lender's private wealth desk.

A private-wealth mortgage is jumbo and super-jumbo lending (I lend to $20M+, subject to credit approval and program terms) for high-net-worth borrowers whose income comes from assets, equity pay, or arrives in lumps. You can qualify on assets under management instead of W-2 income, with custom amortization and cross-collateralization that standard Fannie and Freddie rules don't allow. It's portfolio lending: the loan is held, not sold.

You don't need another lender. You need a private wealth mortgage strategist.

If your income, assets, or property structure doesn't fit a standard underwriting box: you're in the right place.

Executives & C-Suite

RSU/stock-based compensation, deferred comp, and complex W-2s. We count income others won't.

High DTI from student loans with massive earning trajectories. Portfolio lending solves what conforming can't.

What are jumbo loan rates and limits in 2026?

Jumbo loans start above the conforming loan limit, which the FHFA sets each year. For current average rates, see Freddie Mac's weekly Primary Mortgage Market Survey; I don't quote rates here, because your rate depends on your file. I lend to $20M+. Subject to credit approval and program terms.

What Makes This Different

How is a private-wealth mortgage different from a conventional jumbo loan?

A conventional jumbo still follows rigid income rules and is often sold after closing. A private-wealth mortgage is held in portfolio, so the bank can qualify you on assets, structure custom amortization and cross-collateralize properties. I lend to $20M+. Subject to credit approval and program terms.

This isn't retail mortgage with a higher limit. It's a fundamentally different lending experience.

Your Loan Stays In-House

Sean originates private wealth mortgages through a national portfolio lender that keeps them. That means rate renegotiation, low-cost recasting, and a real relationship, not a servicing transfer to a random company 90 days after closing.

One Human. Not a Team.

Sean personally handles every private wealth client from application to close. No hand-off to a junior processor. No 1-800 number. His cell phone. His expertise. Every time.

Income Flexibility Others Can't Match

Rental income from 20 properties? RSUs vesting quarterly? K-1 losses that suppress taxable income? Asset depletion for retired borrowers? We structure around your actual financial picture.

Private Banking Access

Your mortgage relationship opens the door to the bank's private banking side: dedicated private banker, preferred rates on deposits, and concierge treasury services.

Can I get a mortgage based on assets instead of income?

Yes. With asset depletion, your liquid assets are converted into qualifying income. You can also qualify on assets under management, or use a securities-backed structure that keeps your portfolio invested. Subject to credit approval and program terms.

Private Wealth Mortgage FAQ

What are the jumbo loan limits?
Conforming loan limits (currently $832,750 in most areas) don't apply here. Sean's portfolio lender offers jumbo loans from $766,551 to $20M+ with no arbitrary cap. Your loan amount is structured around your financial picture, not a government guideline.
How does asset-based qualification work?
Asset depletion allows you to qualify using liquid assets instead of traditional income. We divide your eligible assets by the loan term to create a qualifying income stream. Ideal for retired executives, business owners between ventures, or borrowers with significant wealth but non-traditional income.
Can RSU and stock compensation count as income?
Yes. Sean's portfolio lender counts vested RSUs, stock options, and deferred compensation as qualifying income. We analyze your vesting schedule and historical grants to determine sustainable income: unlike retail lenders who ignore it entirely.
Can I finance multiple investment properties?
Absolutely. Portfolio lending means no limit on the number of financed properties. Whether you have 5 or 50, we structure each loan based on your total financial picture. No property count restrictions that plague conventional lending.
Can I purchase in a trust or LLC?
Yes. Sean's portfolio lender regularly closes loans vested in revocable trusts, irrevocable trusts, and LLCs. No need to close in personal name and transfer after: we close directly into the entity.
Are foreign nationals eligible?
Yes. Non-resident foreign nationals can purchase U.S. real estate through our private wealth programs. No SSN required. Asset-based qualification available. Typically 30-40% down payment with competitive rates.
Are interest-only options available?
Yes. Interest-only periods of 5, 7, or 10 years are available on private wealth mortgages. This maximizes cash flow and provides flexibility for borrowers who prefer to deploy capital elsewhere during the IO period.
How do rate locks work on jumbo loans?
Extended rate locks up to 90 days are available for jumbo purchases. For new construction, we offer float-down options and extended locks up to 12 months. Sean also monitors rates after lock, if they drop significantly before close, renegotiation is available.
