DSCR Home Loans: Key Things Investors Should Know
How do lenders determine qualifying income for a DSCR loan?
DSCR loans are qualified using the property’s cash flow—not your personal income. Lenders typically compare the property’s gross rental income (from a lease, appraisal rent schedule, or market rent) against the full monthly housing expense (principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and HOA). If the property meets the required DSCR ratio, personal DTI is often not considered.
Can I close a DSCR loan in an LLC or business entity?
Yes. Most DSCR loan programs allow properties to be titled in an LLC or other business entity, which is ideal for investors focused on asset protection and portfolio growth. While you’ll usually sign personally as a guarantor, income documentation remains minimal compared to conventional loans.
What credit, down payment, and reserve requirements should investors expect?
DSCR loans typically require higher credit scores and down payments than owner-occupied loans. Most programs expect a minimum credit score around the mid-600s, 20–25% down for purchases, and several months of reserves. Exact terms vary by DSCR ratio, property type, and market strength.
