Mortgages that match your lifestyle¹

A loan in a league of its own

Quontic’s Community Development Loans are a well-suited home financing option for those who require additional assistance due to paperwork gaps like a lack of W2s or tax returns. Borrowers may qualify without showing ample amounts of documentation if they have a significant down payment and a good credit score to match. We assess the borrower’s full financial profile, not just stacks of statements. Visit our customer stories page to see some examples of how we were able to help others like you.

"The loan team at Quontic Bank was fantastic! They helped me and my family to buy our first house. As immigrants, we have experienced many difficulties and obstacles, but they walked us through the best path and today we can say we own our own house. Highly recommended bank. Thank you."

"My loan officer and his team looked after me from A-Z. I was extremely glad as a person with non-US sourced income to be able to buy my dream apartment in NYC – without Quontic’s focus on niche borrowers like me, I quite simply would not have been able to purchase my new West Village home. Thank you, Quontic!"

"Despite having a substantial down payment and excellent credit score, I was turned down by other institutions because I did not meet their income requirements, so I called Quontic Bank. They specialize in loans that are made for investors or buyers who cannot meet conventional mortgage requirements. Thank you. Quontic."

"I had a great experience with my loan officer. Everyone was responsive, thorough, and professional. They were able to provide a loan based on my specific needs, which was not possible through other lenders. Highly recommend and will be coming back again in the future."

"Excellent! I can’t believe it, I got my new home on time, 30-years fixed rate and no income check! I live in California, no matter they are in NY, all process we are doing by phone and email. They are professional. They know what documents need and help you to reach it. Thank so much to them!"

"Let me start 2022 by saying our family is finally in the house of our dreams! Our Loan Officer and his team navigated us through the mortgage process with knowledge, confidence and kindness that is difficult to find nowadays, especially in business. From that 1st 'after hours' phone call I made to the closing of the loan, he always listened, was patient and helped us in ways other banks could not. We certainly put him to the test, and truly appreciate what he and Quontic bank did for us!"
