What Is an Alternative Mortgage? Every so often in popular music, movies, art and culture, the unconventional becomes the rage, the "alternative" becomes mainstream.  When it does, it usually reshapes people's ideas of what's "normal" and it can redefine what's acceptable --- even preferred --- for a generation or more.  But...mortgage lending is not quite that exciting. No, instead, alternative mortgage lending, also known as "non-QM" or "uncoventional mortgage" or even yesteryear's "Alt-A," simply provides a viable solution to home loan scenarios that don't quite fit in the relatively narrow box of convenional mortgages.  Conventional loans include mainstream conforming loans, FHA and VA programs and even the widely-accepted jumbo mortgage options for those who need loans with higher ...

Thank You! Elisa Uribe was recognized as a Top Producer for 2019 - East Bay  A big thank you to my clients, my referring partners, and those behind the scenes including my assistant, transaction coordinator, stager, photographer, lenders, escrow officers, home inspection, termite and pest, and roof inspectors.  It went by so fast but 2019 was truly an amazing year both professionally and personally.  When I look back at 2019, I realized I called over 23,000 people, sent over 13,500 emails and sent over 9000 texts to have the opportunity to continue to help people follow their dreams. There is a lot of "behind the scenes" in real estate. Again, Thank You and I wish everyone here in the rain greater success in this New Year!
