Frequently Asked Questions from Alexandria Investors
What is a DSCR loan and why is it ideal for Alexandria?
A DSCR loan is a type of non-QM (non-qualified mortgage) loan for investment properties where approval is based on the property's ability to generate enough rental income to cover its mortgage payments (Debt Service Coverage Ratio). It's ideal for Alexandria due to its strong rental market, allowing investors to bypass personal income checks and quickly acquire or refinance properties in high-demand areas like Del Ray or Carlyle.
What types of properties qualify for a DSCR loan in Alexandria?
We lend on a wide range of residential investment properties throughout Alexandria. This includes single-family homes, multi-unit properties (up to 4 units), condominiums, and townhomes. The key is that the property must be rented out or intended for rental, generating sufficient income to cover the mortgage.
How is the DSCR calculated for my Alexandria investment property?
The Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) is calculated by dividing the property's gross rental income (or projected rental income based on a market rent analysis) by its total debt service (principal, interest, taxes, and insurance – PITI). For example, if a property's monthly rental income is $3,000 and its PITI is $2,000, the DSCR is 1.5. Lenders typically look for a DSCR of 1.0 or higher, though preferred ratios vary.
Do you require an appraisal for Alexandria DSCR loans?
Yes, an appraisal is a standard requirement for DSCR loans to determine the property's market value and to help assess its rental income potential. We work with experienced local appraisers who understand the Alexandria market to ensure accurate valuations and a smooth, efficient loan process.
