Questions
DSCR loans are designed for real estate investors who want to qualify for financing based on the cash flow of a rental property rather than personal income. At iBanc Mortgage Services, we work with investors to explore DSCR loan options that support long term rental strategies and portfolio growth.
This type of financing can be a strong option for investors who prefer a property focused approach to qualification.
DSCR stands for Debt Service Coverage Ratio. A DSCR loan evaluates whether a rental property generates enough income to cover its monthly mortgage payment. Instead of relying heavily on traditional income documentation such as tax returns or W 2s, qualification is primarily based on rental income.
The ratio compares the property’s income to its debt obligation. When the income meets or exceeds the required threshold, the property may qualify for financing.
