Frequently Asked Questions from Andover, MA DSCR Loan Clients
What is a DSCR loan and why is it ideal for Andover investors?
A Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) loan is a non-QM (non-qualified mortgage) product for real estate investors. It allows you to qualify for a loan based on the subject property's projected rental income covering its mortgage payments (PITI), rather than your personal income. This is ideal for Andover investors because it simplifies scaling a rental portfolio, removes personal income hurdles, and often provides faster closings than traditional bank loans.
What types of properties qualify for DSCR loans in Andover, MA?
We provide DSCR loans for a variety of investment properties in Andover, MA, including single-family homes, 2-4 unit multi-family residences, small apartment buildings (up to 20 units), and even properties intended for short-term rental (Airbnb) or long-term rental use. The key is that the property must be an investment, not an owner-occupied primary residence.
How is the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) calculated?
The DSCR is calculated by dividing the property's gross monthly rental income by its total monthly debt service, which includes principal, interest, taxes, and insurance (PITI), and sometimes HOA fees. A DSCR of 1.0 means the rental income exactly covers the debt. Most lenders look for a DSCR of 1.25 or higher, though we offer options for lower DSCRs depending on the overall loan profile. A strong DSCR indicates good cash flow for your Andover investment.
Can I use a DSCR loan for a cash-out refinance on my Andover rental property?
Yes, absolutely. DSCR loans are an excellent tool for cash-out refinances on existing investment properties in Andover. This allows you to tap into your property's equity for new investments, renovations, or other business needs, all while qualifying based on the property's cash flow, not your personal income.
