DSCR Loans — Are They Driving Your Scaling Strategy?

[Kelly Schroeder]

I've been hearing a lot about investors using DSCR loans to scale beyond conventional caps. Since the approval is based on property income, not W2s, it seems to line up well with building momentum in 2025.

For lenders and investors here:

- Do you see DSCR as a sustainable way to scale portfolios long-term?
- Are terms improving or tightening this year compared to past years?
- Any creative structures you’ve seen borrowers use to maximize DSCR approvals?

Would love to hear the community's perspective on whether DSCR is still the go-to tool for scaling strategies.
