Has anyone worked with DSCR lenders providing this kind of product? I see a lot of 70-75% LTV, but I thought I would ask.

Thanks in advance!


Generally, 80% refinances are widely available if its a rate term refinance (less than $2,000 cash out at closing) and 75% LTV for cash-out refinances. There are some options for 80% Cash-Out Refis out there but its going to be hard to make work where rates are, considering that product is going to be pretty conservative (must cash flow at lower of in-place and long term rents - no STRs for example) and will likely have at least 6 months seasoning requirements

    I have never seen it, I don’t see a need for it as I doubt there will be cash flow with that high of a loan to value.

    Hi yes, there are still investors out there that can do 80LTV cash out. Only on SFH investment. Must be long term rentals, 2-4 units are maxed at 75ltv

    @Ivan May 75% is the industry standard max for cash out.

    @Devin Peterson

    Appreciate the info Devin. I have an off market deal I recently closed on that I am rehabbing in the Indy metro and looking to refi. I’ll be in touch.

    First question to ask is what are market rents in Indiana``` $1100 depending on location less or more. That number is going to dictate what loan amount you can get. DSCR is cash flow only plus you need reserves.

    Next question is how many credit cards/mortgages/student loans/vehicle loans on your credit report for the reserve number.

    Third is what are the comparable sales with a loan closed past three months in proximity and similar square footage.

    From these three numerical facts you can figure a DSCR.

    80% for SFR non owner only but you need to meet the calculations including above

    70% - 75 for 2-4  75 if you have 740 FICO and experience and 24 months reserves

    The lenders that advertised 80 and 85 in the past are folded or not taking that risk today.

    The funds that back securitizations of DSCR deals backed off of their LTVs. We don't have anything at 85% any more, but 80% is doable.Cash-out refis back off a bit (normally 5% off the LTV). Things change periodically, so count on LTVs changing.

    It's offered, but with the rates where they are, the DSCR doesn't usually work. 75% is the norm.

    85LTV is a unicorn.

    80LTV, yes, but with 6 month seasoning. I've been quoting/closing between 8.5-9% on them at par with a 1.00 DSCR min.

    Definitely better pricing at 75LTV and only 3 months to season.

    Cheers!

    Yes, they are still out there. Also, I just got word today about a lender willing to do a 2nd position DSCR!

    I've got lenders that do 85% LTV on purchases if DSCR ratio is over 1.0 and I CAN DO 80% LTV EVEN IF DSCR RATIO IS UNDER 1.0! interest rate takes a beating but we can do it. we can also do 80% cash out refi's with DSCR greater than 1.0. We also accept air bnb income if we need to if long term rents dont support DSCR.

    It exists now, however the requirements are a bit of a challenge. Happy to chat!
