Which strategy fits your property?

Your property. Your goals. The right conversation.

Not every investment property follows the same path. Your DSCR Analysis identifies the financing scenarios investors actually use — so you understand what may fit your goals before you commit to anything.

Not every property fits DSCR. That's okay.

Our analysis doesn't stop at one financing strategy. If another business-purpose approach appears more appropriate for your scenario, your specialist will explain why and walk through the available options.

DSCR Questions, Straight Answers

The questions investors actually ask — answered plainly. Something specific to your scenario? That's what the Analysis is for.

What is a DSCR loan?

A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan qualifies a real-estate investor based on the property's rental income instead of the borrower's personal income. The ratio is the monthly rent divided by the monthly payment — at 1.0 or higher, the rent covers the payment and the property essentially carries itself.

Do I need tax returns or W-2s for a DSCR loan?

No. DSCR qualification is based on the property's rental income — not your tax returns, W-2s, or employment. That's the entire point of the product for self-employed and portfolio investors.

I'm self-employed with heavy write-offs — does that hurt me?

No. Because DSCR loans qualify on the property's income rather than your personal income, aggressive write-offs on your returns don't work against you the way they do with a bank loan.

Can I close in an LLC?

Yes. Most DSCR programs are built for entity borrowers — closing in an LLC is standard practice, not an exception.

This is my first investment property — can I qualify?

Many DSCR programs allow first-time investors. Experience helps in some programs, but a first rental with solid income can absolutely qualify.

I own several rentals — is that a problem?

No — portfolio investors are the core DSCR customer. Many programs have no practical limit on the number of financed properties.

Does Airbnb or short-term rental income count?

Many DSCR programs accept short-term rental income, using either market rent or documented STR income. Vacation-rental markets and Airbnb operators have real options.

What credit score and down payment do DSCR loans need?

Most programs start in the mid-600s for credit, with stronger scores unlocking better terms. Purchases typically require 20–25% down; refinance equity requirements vary by program.

Can I do a cash-out refinance on a rental with a DSCR loan?

Yes. DSCR cash-out refinances access the equity in a rental based on what the property's rent supports — commonly used to fund the next acquisition.

Do you only handle DSCR loans?

DSCR is the desk's specialty, but investors bring their whole toolbox: fix-and-flip, ground-up construction, and investment-property equity lines are all business-purpose scenarios your specialist can discuss. Start with the Analysis — the conversation covers whatever your deal needs.

Can I use a DSCR loan for my primary residence?

No. DSCR loans are business-purpose loans for investment property only — not for homes you intend to live in.
