Get Cash Out of Your Investment Property with no Personal Income Needed for the Loan- Pricing Special- 0.35% off for all loans locked in May

DSCR loans are a great way to supercharge your investment goals and net worth. Depending on the loan program, the mortgage will only be qualified off of your middle credit FICO credit score, down payment and market or actual rents.

If you aren't looking to get cash out, you can also refinance out of a shorter term hard money loan or any loan to have a fixed 30 year mortgage term with a lower rate.

More details:

• Loans available for cash-out and purchase 
• Credits score down to 620 (for loans under $100K, middle mortgage credit score is 680). Minimum $75K appraised value needed for a purchase or refinance.
• LTV are up to 75% for cash out.
• Cash out limits depend on property value, credit score and if the property is vacant.
• Non-warrantable condos and condotels permitted for loans above $100K.
• Rate buydown feature available.
• DSCR (lower of gross rent lease or Appraisal Form 1007/216 rent divided by PITIA) as low as 1.0x.
• Short term rentals can be structured off of 12 month short term rental history for loans above $100K.
• Fixed 30 year terms or fixed 40 year terms of 10 years of interest only payments followed by 30 years fully amortized for loans above $100K.
• Loan options in most states.
• Inquire for additional details.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Depending on credit and LTV, rates are generally in the high 6s and throughout 7s as of the date on this post. If the credit is very low, will be higher.

As far as what goes into DSCR rates and how the program works:

DSCR loans won't use your income to underwrite the loan. DSCR loans are based off of down payment or equity in the property if a refinance, credit score and either actual or market rents so it helps to supercharge an investor's real estate goals and net worth.

Here's a bit more in detail about how rates are calculated for DSCR loans:

1. Credit score- the higher the best. 760-780+ generally gets best pricing for investment property loans with most lenders. From there every 20 point increment affect pricing differently. So for example, a 761 credit score will be in the 760-779 credit category, then going down to 740-759 and so on.

2. Loan to value ratio: The higher the loan to value ratio (LTV) is, pricing takes a hit. So your pricing will be higher for a 80% LTV loan than for a 60% LTV loan.

3. Prepayment penalties- usually 1-5 year terms. The shorter the prepayment term has an impact on increasing the rate.

4. Are you cash flowing the property? More on how that is calculated below. Is your DSCR ratio greater than 1-meaning are you cash flowing (according to the lender's criteria of mortgage, property taxes and insurance (and HOA) if applicable). Many lenders will not do a DSCR loan unless cash flowing. If they will do a loan with less than 1, the pricing takes a hit. This criteria is for 1-4 and 5-8 unit programs.

I've included an example below to help illustrate this.

So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.

See example below:

DSCR < 1

Principal + Interest = $1,700

Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50

Total PITIA = $2200

Rent = $2000

DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91

Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.

DSCR >1

Principal + Interest = $1,500

Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25

Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300

DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23

If a purchase, you also generally need reserves / savings to show you have 3-6 month payments of PITIA (principal / interest (mortgage payment), property taxes and insurance and HOA (if applicable). If a cash out refinance, many lenders will allow the cash out to satisfy the reserves requirement.

DSCR lenders generally let you vest either individually or as an LLC. It's a great way to increase your net worth and these loans can also be used to pull cash out of a property as it appreciates allowing you to reinvest money into new deals.

Generally it's going to be 75% LTV for a cash out refinance or if you can find more it's going to be much higher on the rate.

If it's determined you can no longer qualify for a conventional loan that's based on your DTI, there are DSCR loans.

More info on how DSCR loans work: DSCR loans won't use your income to underwrite the loan. DSCR loans are based off of down payment, credit score and either actual or market rents so it helps to supercharge an investor's real estate goals and net worth. DSCR loans generally require a personal guarantor even with the use of an LLC. Most investors use LLCs for tax and/or liability reasons.

DSCR loan rates might drop further but if they drastically drop then we can get into a situation where were were a couple of years ago where multiple bidders were bidding on properties and driving up prices so if investors weren't paying on the rate, they were paying on the price.

There are DSCR loan options that are 15% down for a single family rental but that drives the rate up.

Some DSCR lenders will go down to a $75K value and a $55K loan amount. It's the same work to do a $55K loan as a $500K loan so the fees will be higher due to the loan amount but will still be much lower than what a lender or broker gets paid on a higher loan amount.

What's the square footage? There are some DSCR programs that are lower than 600 sq ft.

Some DSCR lenders will go down to a $75K appraised value and a $55K loan amount. It's the same work to do a $55K loan as a $500K loan so the fees will be higher due to the loan amount but will still be much lower than what a lender or broker gets paid on a higher loan amount. I haven't seen a program that goes lower than $75K appraised value but maybe the seller will carry?

Many DSCR programs require an investor to have a mortgage history- there are some DSCR mortgage programs that will work with investors who are renting- some refer to them as first time home buyers (FTHBs)- DSCR loans are only for investment properties where the owner isn't living there.
