Frequently Asked Questions from Brawley, CA DSCR Loan Clients
What is a DSCR loan and why is it ideal for Brawley investors?
A Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) loan is a non-QM (non-qualified mortgage) product specifically designed for real estate investors. It qualifies the loan based on the subject property's projected rental income covering its mortgage payment, rather than the borrower's personal income. This makes it ideal for Brawley investors seeking to expand their rental portfolios without the hassle of traditional income verification, allowing for quicker, more efficient closings.
What types of properties do you lend on in Brawley, CA with DSCR loans?
We primarily focus on residential investment properties in Brawley, including single-family homes (1 unit), duplexes, triplexes, quadplexes (2-4 units), small multi-family apartment buildings (up to 20 units), condos, and townhomes. Our DSCR programs are tailored for properties intended for long-term rental or short-term rental (STR) income. We do not lend on owner-occupied properties, land, or large commercial properties with DSCR loans.
How is DSCR calculated and what's a good ratio for my Brawley property?
The DSCR is calculated by dividing the property's gross monthly rental income by its total monthly debt service (principal, interest, property taxes, insurance, and HOA fees, if applicable). A DSCR of 1.0 means the income exactly covers the expenses. Most lenders prefer a DSCR of 1.20 or higher, though we offer programs for DSCRs as low as 0.75-0.80, allowing more flexibility for properties with slightly less cash flow, in exchange for slightly higher rates or lower LTV.
Do you require income or employment verification for DSCR loans in Brawley?
No, that's one of the key advantages! Our DSCR loan programs are "no-doc" or "low-doc" in terms of personal income and employment. We assess your ability to repay based on the investment property's cash flow potential, not your personal tax returns, W-2s, or pay stubs. We do, however, verify your experience as a real estate investor and review your credit history.
