Mortgage Broker in Michigan for Jumbo & Non-QM Loans
Michigan's jumbo market runs on three engines — the Oakland County luxury corridor around Bloomfield Hills and Birmingham, the Ann Arbor academic-medical hub, and the Northern Michigan summer-home belt from Harbor Springs to Traverse City. LendFriend Mortgage structures jumbo financing across all three, with conventional and Non-QM options for each buyer profile.
Michigan Jumbo Loans Built To Serve Your Home Loan Needs
Michigan’s jumbo loan market is not limited to one type of buyer or one type of property. High-value homes in Bloomfield Hills, Birmingham, Grosse Pointe, and Ann Arbor often require a different financing approach than second homes in Traverse City, Harbor Springs, Holland, or along the Charlevoix coast.
That’s where LendFriend Mortgage comes in. We help Michigan buyers compare jumbo loan options across multiple lenders and structure financing around the property, income profile, down payment strategy, and long-term goals.
Some buyers want the stability of a 30-year fixed jumbo loan. Others may benefit from a 5/1, 7/1, or 10/1 ARM. Self-employed borrowers, business owners, retirees, and high-net-worth buyers may need non-QM options such as bank statement loans or asset depletion programs.
Instead of forcing every borrower into the same loan box, we look at the full picture and match you with the jumbo mortgage structure that makes the most sense for your Michigan purchase.
More Than Just a 30-Year Fixed Jumbo. ARM Options Available
Michigan buyers expecting a future move benefit from comparing the 30-year fixed against a 7/1 or 5/1 jumbo ARM. ARMs price lower at origination, and if you sell or refinance before the fixed-rate period ends, the savings compound. Buyers transitioning between Oakland County and Northern Michigan often run the math both ways before choosing.
Your ownership horizon drives the right product. We help you make that call with both options on the table.
Flexible Jumbo Non-QM Loan Qualification for Self-Employed or Asset-Rich Buyers
Michigan jumbo borrowers frequently sit outside conventional W-2 underwriting. Family-business owners with closely-held company equity, dealership operators with deferred comp, and self-employed professionals often qualify more cleanly through Non-QM jumbo:
-
Bank statement loans for self-employed buyers and business owners
-
Asset depletion programs for retirees and high-net-worth borrowers who prefer to qualify using investments rather than W-2 income
Each program uses its own qualifying lens, and the right pick depends on which documentation actually reflects how you earn.
Closing Speed on Michigan Jumbo Deals
Bloomfield Hills, Birmingham, and Ann Arbor move quickly on the right property. Our Michigan jumbo files can close as quickly as 14 days because we structure clean at intake, run early disclosures, and pre-clear the most common underwriting friction before it hits the contract timeline.

Working with the LendFriend team was an excellent experience. They are all very responsive and on top of things and have very competitive rates. They can stand to communicate a little bit more actively once the rate is locked and goes into underwriting. Overall, I would work with LendFriend again and would highly recommended others work with the team.

Wow my husband and I were truly impressed with how easy the LendFriend team made our home buying experience. Eric and his team took extra care in explaining and outlining each step -- a real customer first experience. On top of that, each member of the team was incredibly knowledgeable, organized, and responsive; resulting in an expeditious close! The website promise of working around the clock to support you is 100% factual, we had staff answering questions late night and weekends. The entire team was a real pleasure to work with, so if you are looking for a mortgage broker look no further, LendFriend is the team for you! They will give you peace of mind, get you the best rates, and make you feel confident when buying your home :)

I had been looking for a house for 2-3 years and while it was a journey as a business owner with a difficult financial situation this company did what 6 others could not. They got me a jumbo loan based off my business income and when I needed more they just made it happen twice. This process of funding can be extremely difficult and basically a blow to the ego but Eric and his team are literally magicians and my fiancee and I are now closed on out dream house. I recommend them whole heartedly

LendFriend made my homebuying experience so easy. As a business owner, I heard horror stories about how hard it can be for guys like me to get a mortgage. Thankfully I found LendFriend. Eric and the team had me approved in no time. My rate was great and they closed on time. Couldn’t ask for more

I am so grateful for Micheal and his team at LendFriend. As a first time homebuyer with multiple businesses, I was very nervous about the loan process. Anyone who’s self employed knows loan processes for us are more extensive but LendFriend made it an ease. From getting a great rate to closing, they made clear communication and were extremely helpful in making sure I had everything I needed to ensure we got the final approval well in advance of closing date. They are truly amazing people to have on your team. Thank you Micheal, Morgan and Crystal for your encouraging words and optimism throughout this process.

Asset Depletion Loans in Michigan
Michigan buyers with portfolio wealth — retirees, family-business heirs, asset-rich Bloomfield Hills and Grosse Pointe purchasers — can qualify through asset depletion rather than producing W-2 income. Brokerage accounts, IRAs, and trust holdings convert to qualifying income under the lender's formula.

Bank Statement Loans In Michigan
Self-employed Michigan buyers, family-business owners, and dealership operators frequently report income on tax returns that understates actual cash flow. Bank-statement loans qualify off 12 or 24 months of deposits, and P&L-only programs work where deposits don't tell the full story.
Crypto Mortgages in Michigan
Buy your Michigan home using your Bitcoin and Ethereum holdings without selling a single token. Our crypto-backed mortgage qualifies you on your digital-asset balance instead of reported income, so you can avoid triggering capital gains on a forced sale.
RSU Mortgages For Tech Employees in Michigan
Equity-compensated Michigan professionals — common in Ann Arbor's biotech and tech sectors and across the broader Detroit metro — can use vested RSUs as qualifying income. The mortgage treats vested grants as recurring income without requiring cash-out.
Buy Before You Sell in Michigan
Northern Michigan sellers, especially in Harbor Springs and Traverse City summer markets, often pass on contingent offers. Buy Before You Sell advances equity from your existing home so you can close on the new property before the current one sells.

Michigan Jumbo Loan FAQs
What loan amount qualifies as a jumbo loan in Michigan?
Michigan's 2026 conforming loan limit sits at $832,750 for single-unit properties across every county — Wayne (Detroit, Grosse Pointe, Northville), Washtenaw (Ann Arbor), Kent (Grand Rapids), Oakland (Bloomfield Hills, Birmingham, Troy, Rochester Hills), and Grand Traverse (Traverse City) all use the same number. Loans above that qualify as jumbo.
The uniform statewide limit simplifies the math. The differences across Michigan markets show up in lender pricing, overlay preferences, and how each wholesale program treats specific property types — a Bloomfield Hills primary versus a Harbor Springs second home, for example.
What's the maximum I can borrow for a jumbo loan in Michigan?
Our Michigan jumbo programs reach into multi-million dollar territory and up to $10M on the right file. Strong credit, substantial reserves, and clean documentation open the largest amounts, common for Bloomfield Hills and Birmingham purchases.
Do I need to have perfect credit to get a jumbo loan in Michigan?
750+ FICO secures the best Michigan jumbo pricing. Lower scores still qualify when compensating factors are in place — larger down payment, stronger liquid reserves, or asset-depletion qualifying that values the full balance sheet.
Can I qualify for a jumbo loan in Michigan if I'm self employed or don't fit traditional lending criteria?
Yes. Non-QM jumbo programs handle Michigan family-business owners, dealership operators with deferred comp, auto-industry executives with restricted stock, partnership-comp medical and legal professionals, and retirees on portfolio income. Bank-statement loans use 12-24 months of deposits. Asset-depletion programs use brokerage and retirement balances. P&L-only programs work for cash-flow strong businesses with heavily written-off returns.
What property types in Michigan are eligible for jumbo financing?
Jumbo financing covers single-family homes, townhomes, and condominiums across Michigan. Bloomfield Hills estates, Birmingham downtown condos, Ann Arbor university-area homes, and Northern Michigan summer properties all qualify under the right program structure.
What are today's jumbo rates and how do they compare to conventional rates?
Michigan jumbo rates often match conventional pricing and sometimes price below it. Wholesale lender competition for Bloomfield Hills, Ann Arbor, and Birmingham jumbo files keeps the rate sheet sharp for well-qualified borrowers.
Am I able to refinance my Michigan jumbo loan?
Yes. Michigan jumbo refinances cover rate-and-term, cash-out, and ARM-to-fixed conversions. Common reasons include locking in lower fixed rates from an ARM, pulling equity for a renovation, or restructuring debt across primary and second-home holdings in Northern Michigan.
Why Choose LendFriend?
Michigan jumbo is core to our work. We close across Oakland and Wayne County, Ann Arbor and Washtenaw, Grand Rapids, and the Northern Michigan summer-home corridor.

Conventional, ARM, or Non-QM jumbo — we route to the lender that prices and underwrites the file best.
Around the Clock
