Get matched with an experienced real estate-savvy lender in 60 seconds. No credit impact. Fast closings..

🚀 Why Choose a DSCR Loan?

Built for investors. Designed to help you scale faster, with fewer barriers.

• ✅ No personal income documentation required
• ✅ Qualify with rental income only
• ✅ Close in an LLC or personal name
• ✅ Perfect for short-term rentals (Airbnb, VRBO)
• ✅ 30-year fixed or interest-only options
• ✅ Loans up to $5 million

Common Example: An investor with four existing properties was denied by a traditional lender due to loan limits. By switching to a DSCR loan, they were able to close on their fifth property in under two weeks — without income docs or DTI limitations.

📈 How DSCR Loans Work

DSCR Formula: Net Operating Income / Mortgage Payment

If your rental income covers the loan payment (typically DSCR >= 1.0), you can qualify — even if you have complex or low reported income.

Example: $2,000 monthly rent / $1,600 mortgage payment = 1.25 DSCR ✅

Most lenders look for:

• 640+ credit score
• 20–25% down payment
• 6+ months of reserves

✅ Who DSCR Loans Are Perfect For

• Self-employed investors or freelancers
• Airbnb or short-term rental hosts
• BRRRR strategy investors (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refi, Repeat)
• Investors scaling beyond 5+ properties
• First-time buyers with capital but no W-2

Common Example: An investor with substantial home equity but no W-2 income was able to use projected rental income to qualify for a DSCR loan. By submitting a rent estimate from the appraiser, they secured financing and closed within three weeks.
