I'm trying to close on 2 properties at once. They both equal $215k average rent is $1350 per unit. My DSCR Lender quoted me at 7.5% for 30 years with 20% down. Is there anyone who can beat that?

Agree with AJ, it dos seem a little high, but that could depend on how you are structuring and things like an applicable prepayment penalty. Plenty of us here that are happy to give a second look!

@AJ Exner Correct. They are both single family. Also they’re figuring closing to be right under $60k maybe less if closing isn’t as much as they’re figuring for.
Generally speaking, that is high. We are seeing many DSCR in the low 6's right now. With that said, we know nothing about the actual DSCR, location, or property type... all of which can effect the rate.
While that does sound a bit high at face value, as others have mentioned, there are a number of factors that could influence the rate upward. Nick Belsky mentioned most of them, though I would add that your credit and the size of the loan can have a significant impact on rate options/pricing as well.

Most people are going to beat that, but there might be things we are missing. The less you put down, the higher the rate is going to be and the more difficult it will be to get the deal to cash flow at 1.0X or higher. Now, might I suggest that there will "always be someone cheaper". It's been my experience that the best ability a lender has is "close-ability". Build a relationship with a pro that knows their stuff and is fair to you. I can't tell you the number of times I've had someone say "but so and so said they can do it cheaper" only to come back later and tell me the other lender either bait-and-switched them or failed to close altogether. That's my 2 center.

@Nick Cooper you should be able to get a better deal than that. A few lenders that I've worked with in the past are offering rates in the low 6s depending on your loan profile. Happy to make the connection. Feel free to message me and I will share their information.
