Available options

Investor financing paths

DSCR

Investor financing that considers rental cash flow relative to the property's debt obligations. The qualifying rent is compared to PITIA. Lender definitions and thresholds vary—this is not guaranteed approval or 'no documentation.'

Conventional Investor Financing

Standard financing for investment properties with documented income and credit qualification. Terms and requirements differ from owner-occupied loans.

Cash-Out & Rate-Term Refinance

Eligible refinance paths for investment properties, subject to program limits and property eligibility. Cash-out access depends on the program and equity.

Bridge / Hard Money

Short-term options that may be available for time-sensitive or non-traditional scenarios. Watch for prepayment penalties and higher costs where applicable.

What shapes your deal

Key considerations

Cash flow: rent minus operating costs and debt service
Reserves: many programs require months of payments in reserve
Property eligibility: not every program permits every property type
Appraisal and rent analysis: lenders may use market rent estimates
Prepayment penalties: read the terms where applicable
Debt-service obligations: how the loan payment affects your ratios

About DSCR

DSCR (Debt-Service Coverage Ratio) compares qualifying rent to the property's PITIA (principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and association dues). Lender definitions and thresholds vary—there's no universal qualifying ratio, and DSCR is not guaranteed approval or a no-documentation loan.
