A DSCR loan is an investor-focused mortgage where approval is based on the property’s rental income—not personal income or tax returns. Lenders compare the rental income to the monthly payment (PITIA) to determine the Debt Service Coverage Ratio. If the rental income covers the payment, the property qualifies.
Most DSCR lenders require a minimum credit score of 660 and a DSCR ratio of 1.00 or higher, meaning the rental income covers the payment. Some lenders allow lower DSCR ratios (even below 1.0) with stronger credit, higher reserves, or additional pricing adjustments.
Yes. DSCR loans are specifically designed for real estate investors and can be closed in an LLC, corporation, or other entity structure. This allows investors to separate liability, keep clean bookkeeping, and manage multiple rental properties under one entity.
