Questions

What is a DSCR loan?

DSCR stands for Debt Service Coverage Ratio. It compares the income a property produces to the debt payment on that property, and it is used in investment and commercial real estate financing.

Boss Mortgage works with investors on both purchases and refinances structured this way.

Is personal income reviewed on a DSCR loan?

DSCR structures focus on the property's ability to cover its debt service, which is why investors often consider them. The specific documentation an investor requires can still vary.

A loan originator who works with these programs can outline what a particular scenario would require.

Can I finance more than one rental property?

Many investors hold multiple properties. Boss Mortgage works with complex tax returns and with 1–4 unit properties, and can explain how equity in one property may be leveraged toward another.
