Two roads to the same property.

One asks for two years of paperwork. The other asks if the rent covers the loan. Here's how a DSCR loan stacks up against a conventional investment-property mortgage.

forum What we hear

Three reasons investors call us —
and what's actually possible past each one.

If it involves rental income and a property that pencils, there's usually a DSCR path. The trick is finding the one that fits your deal.

format_quote

"My write-offs make me look broke on paper. The bank can't see the actual cash flow my properties generate."

The write-off trap

format_quote

"I hit the 10-property ceiling and conventional told me I was done. My properties are still cash-flowing — but the door closed."

The portfolio ceiling

format_quote

"My Airbnb pays double what a long-term rental would — but the bank won't count a dollar of it."

What it takes

Qualify the property, not the paycheck.

DSCR loans don't ask for the paperwork conventional lenders bury you in. Here's the short list of what actually moves a deal forward.

  • check_circle

    Investment property only

    Single-family, multi-family, condo, short-term rental — anything you don't live in. Primary residence is a hard line.

  • check_circle

    Rent that covers the payment

    The property's rental income should cover the mortgage payment (the DSCR ratio). The closer to 1.0+, the easier the deal pencils.

  • check_circle

    A meaningful down payment

    DSCR loans expect more skin in the game than an owner-occupied mortgage. Exact percent depends on the lender, the deal, and the property type.

  • check_circle

    A credit history they can review

    Lenders still want to see how you handle credit — but the bar is reasonable, not the marathon conventional puts you through.

  • check_circle

    LLC or personal name — your call

    Most DSCR lenders close in your LLC. The entity structure your CPA built stays intact.
