A DSCR loan is a type of mortgage used by real estate investors to purchase or refinance income-producing properties, based on the property’s cash flow, not your income. This makes it an excellent choice for:
DSCR loans are approved based on the property’s rental income, not your job, W-2, or tax returns. That means no income verification or employment documentation is typically required. The key metric? DSCR = Net Operating Income (NOI) / Annual Debt Payments
If your property generates $60,000 in NOI per year and your annual mortgage payments are $48,000, DSCR = 60,000 ÷ 48,000 = 1.25. That means your property earns 25% more than your debt payments—most lenders consider this a solid deal.
DSCR loans are ideal for:
✔ No Tax Returns Needed
✔ No Employment or W-2 Verification ✔ Scalable—No Limit on Number of Properties Financed
✔ Ideal for LLCs, Trusts, or Self-Directed IRA purchases
✔ Flexible terms—some offer interest-only options
✔ Larger loan amounts based on property performance
Like any financial tool, DSCR loans come with considerations:
