There is no minimum score, everything has a certain weightage (in some cases it is explicit in others it is not)

For example a friend has a 630 GMAT who works at McKinsey but at same time has very good experience (8 years in pharma and health care , lot of promotions, very impactful work)

On the other hand I have a 760 , 3.8/4 and very average work ex (no big name company, couple of promotions) and I still interviewed with M and landed a job at K

Hi All,

I have reached FI. After working abroad, I am back and looking to buy a primary home in the US. I can buy the house in cash but want to keep my assets invested.

As 30-year loans are <3%, I would love to get the maximum loan possible (>=80%) at this rate.

Since I don’t have W2 income will a bank give me a mortgage and can it be below 3% interest? I think these are called “asset based mortgage loans” or “asset depleting mortgage loans.”

Any ideas about banks will be much appreciated.
