Get Cash Out of Your Investment Property with no Personal Income Needed for the Loan
Pricing Specials for Loans where the loan is submitted and locked in April
This special is good for purchases, rate/term & refinance cash-out loans = 0.25% off the usual rate
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 or use the special for savings to purchase an investment property.
More details:
- Loans available for cash-out
- Credits score down to 620 (for loans under $100K, middle mortgage credit score is 680)
- 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.
- Inquire for additional details.
For the pricing special, I work on DSCR loans in all U.S. states except for Alaska, Minnesota, Arizona, Nevada, North & South Dakota, Idaho, Illinois, New Jersey, Vermont, New York, Virginia, Wyoming, Oregon and Utah.
I look forward to hearing from you.

@Selina Giarla, what kind of loan are you trying to do and is it for an investment property? If so, what state and what are the details? There may be some additional loan programs depending on the situation.
An option is to get a DSCR loan. 1-4 unit programs generally have better rates compared to 5+. These have 30 year fixed options.
More info here:
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.
Here's a bit more in detail about how rates are calculated for DSCR loans:
1. Credit score- the higher the best. 760+ generally gets best pricing for investment property loans with most lenders
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
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.

If an investment property can go the income route where your debt to income is analyzed or go the DSCR route.
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. $100K and above loan amounts will get you more lender options.

You can get a fix and flip loan for an investment property with up to 90% of the purchase price and 100% of the rehab budget with up to 75% of the ARV. The borrower is coming in with only 10% of the down payment if approved. The number usually varies from 10-20% depending on credit score, property analysis, etc.
Some lenders will work with any level of investor experience, credit scores as low as 660 and can close in as little as 10 days (there are loan options for 640-660 credit scores- they require 20% down). Lender options vary by state.
Another good thing is interest only and 6-24 month loan terms- you can refinance by selling or refinancing to a long term DSCR rental property loan at any time once you complete the rehab.

Most fix and flip lenders are looking for a $100k minimum loan amount between purchase and rehab budget.
