Pre-qualification is a preliminary inquiry only — it is not an approval, pre-approval, rate quote or commitment to lend.

How the DSCR ratio works

A simple check on rent versus the payment.

DSCR means debt-service coverage ratio. In plain English, a lender compares the property’s monthly rent with its total monthly payment. Use the calculator to get a quick sense of the coverage before you talk through the deal.

Most DSCR lenders look for a ratio of 1.20 or higher. This is a general rule of thumb, not a promise or an approval.

Questions, answered

A few things investors ask us early.

What is a DSCR loan?

A DSCR loan is an investment-property loan that focuses on the property’s rental income and expenses. It is designed for investors, not owner-occupied homes.

What is a DSCR ratio, and what ratio do you look for?

The DSCR ratio is the property’s monthly rent divided by its monthly mortgage payment. Many programs start around 1.0, but the target depends on the property, loan type, and terms. We will tell you the actual target for your deal.

Do you check my personal income or tax returns?

Usually, DSCR qualification centers on the property rather than traditional personal-income or tax-return underwriting. We will explain any personal documentation your specific situation requires.

Can I use projected or Airbnb rent?

Potentially. Short-term rentals and projected rent can be part of the conversation, but the documentation and rules vary by property and program. We will tell you what can be used before you move forward.

Do you lend to LLCs?

Yes, investor loans can often be made to an LLC. We will review the entity and ownership details as part of the application.

What are typical rates and fees?

Rates and fees depend on the property, loan purpose, leverage, credit profile, and current market. Your quote will lay out the important costs clearly so you can compare the full picture.

How long does closing take?

Timing depends on the property and how quickly the appraisal and documents come together. We will give you a realistic timeline for your deal and keep you posted if anything changes.
