WHO USES DSCR LOANS

DSCR lending was designed for investors who build wealth through property income — not a paycheck. If your properties cash flow, you qualify.

Fix and flip investor

Fix & Flip Investors

You need bridge capital fast, then a DSCR refi once the property is stabilized and rented. Traditional lenders can't keep up with your acquisition pace.

BRRRR strategy investor

BRRRR Strategists

DSCR is the refi engine of BRRRR. Once your rehab is done and the tenant is in, DSCR lets you pull equity out immediately — no 12-month seasoning wait.

Portfolio builder investor

Portfolio Builders

Each property qualifies independently on its own DSCR. No stacking against personal DTI. Add your 15th property the same way you added your 5th.

Airbnb short term rental operator

Airbnb & STR Operators

DSCR programs count your short-term rental income using 12-month averages or market rent analysis. The platform revenue that banks ignore is exactly what qualifies you here.

Self-employed investor

Self-Employed Investors

DSCR doesn't look at your tax returns. Your business write-offs, 1099 income, and K-1 complexity are irrelevant — only the property's rent-to-payment ratio matters.

Multi-family investor

Multi-Family Investors

Multi-unit properties often have the strongest DSCR ratios. More units means more income streams, making qualification straightforward even on larger deals.

First time real estate investor

First-Time Investors

DSCR removes the experience catch-22. If the property cash flows, you qualify — even on your first investment property. The numbers speak for themselves.

Out of state remote investor

Out-of-State Investors

DSCR qualification is property-based, not borrower-location-based. Invest in any market from anywhere — your property's rent covers the qualification regardless of where you live.

WHY CONVENTIONAL LOANS DON'T WORK FOR INVESTORS

Conventional mortgage underwriting was designed for homeowners with W-2 jobs. It systematically excludes the people who build wealth through real estate.

Income That Doesn't Count

Rental income, Airbnb revenue, LLC distributions — conventional lenders discount or ignore all of it. They only accept W-2 employment income, which most serious investors don't have.

Tax Returns That Hurt You

Smart investors minimize taxes through depreciation and write-offs. But conventional lenders use your tax return as income proof — the lower your taxes, the less you "earn" in their eyes.

DTI That Punishes Growth

Every property you own adds to your debt-to-income ratio. Conventional lenders see 10 cash-flowing properties as a liability, not an asset. Your success becomes the reason for denial.

Seasoning That Kills Momentum

Conventional refinance requires 6-12 months of ownership before you can pull equity. For BRRRR investors, that means capital trapped in completed projects instead of funding the next deal.

DSCR LOAN PROGRAMS

One qualification method. Multiple strategies supported.

Long-Term Rental

30-year fixed terms for buy-and-hold investors. Qualify on annual lease income with standard DSCR calculation.

Short-Term Rental

Airbnb and VRBO income programs. Qualification uses 12-month average or market rent analysis for STR properties.

BRRRR Refinance

Cash-out refinance on stabilized properties. Pull equity from completed rehabs to fund the next acquisition cycle.

Multi-Family DSCR

2-4 unit and 5+ unit programs. Multiple income streams strengthen your DSCR ratio for easier qualification.

Portfolio Stacking

Bundle 2-10+ properties under one DSCR loan. Volume pricing and simplified underwriting for portfolio-scale investors.

Vacation Rental

Specialized programs for resort and vacation markets. Seasonal income smoothing and market-specific rent analysis built in.

Frequently Asked Questions

A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan qualifies borrowers based on the rental income a property generates relative to the mortgage payment. If the property income covers the debt, you qualify — no W-2 or tax returns required.

DSCR = Monthly Rental Income ÷ Monthly Mortgage Payment (PITIA — Principal, Interest, Taxes, Insurance, Association dues). A DSCR of 1.0 means the property breaks even. Most programs require 1.0 or higher, though some accept 0.75+ with compensating factors like higher credit scores or lower LTV.

Minimum 660 FICO score is required. Higher credit scores unlock better rates, lower down payment requirements, and more favorable terms.

Yes. DSCR programs accept both long-term rental income and short-term rental (Airbnb/VRBO) income for qualification. STR income is typically calculated using a 12-month average or market rent analysis.

DSCR loans can close in as few as 5-10 business days. The streamlined underwriting — focused on property performance rather than personal financial documentation — allows significantly faster closings than conventional loans.
