DSCR Loans

Qualify on the rent, not your tax returns. DSCR loans let real-estate investors finance rentals on the property's own cash flow.

Independent brokerage since 2007 4.5★ on Google Licensed in RI, MA, PA, FL & AL A network of specialty lenders, one application

A DSCR (Debt-Service Coverage Ratio) loan qualifies you on a simple idea: does the property's rent cover its mortgage payment? If the numbers work, your personal income, tax returns and pay stubs stay out of it — which is exactly why serious investors use them.

As an independent brokerage, we shop a network of investor-focused lenders, so your file is matched to the program with the right ratio flexibility and terms — not squeezed into one bank's single guideline.

Who it’s for

Portfolio builders

Keep buying past the conventional loan cap — investor lenders are built for scale.

Cash-flow qualifiers

Qualify on the lease or market rent vs. the payment, with no personal income docs.

LLC investors

Close in your entity's name on qualifying programs.

BRRRR & refinance

Buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat — refinance out on the stabilized rent into long-term financing.

Common questions

What DSCR do I need to qualify?

Programs vary; many look for the rent to roughly cover the payment, and some allow lower ratios — even no-ratio options — with other compensating factors. We'll match your property to the right one.

Do you check my personal income?

On a true DSCR loan, no. Qualification centers on the property's cash flow, not your W-2 or tax returns.

Can I close in an LLC?

Yes — most DSCR lenders allow, and many prefer, entity vesting.

How is rent determined?

Usually the lease in place or the appraiser's market-rent opinion (Form 1007), depending on the program.

Can I use a DSCR loan for a short-term rental?

Many programs allow short-term and Airbnb-style rentals and will use projected or actual STR income. We'll confirm the program rules.
