Frequently Asked Questions from Chapel Hill Investors

What is a DSCR loan and why is it ideal for Chapel Hill investors?

A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan is a non-QM mortgage for investment properties where approval is based on the property's ability to cover its debt service, not the borrower's personal income. It's ideal for Chapel Hill due to its strong and predictable rental market, making it easy for investors to qualify based on the property's income, bypassing the complexities of traditional income verification.

How fast can I get funded for a rental property in Chapel Hill?

While DSCR loans involve more underwriting than hard money, our efficient process typically allows funding within 10-21 business days for qualified Chapel Hill properties. This speed can be crucial for securing competitive rental investments in this vibrant market.

What types of rental properties do you lend on in Chapel Hill?

We focus on residential investment properties in Chapel Hill, including single-family homes, duplexes, 2-4 unit multi-family properties, condos, and townhomes. Our emphasis is on the property's rental income potential and overall market value, supporting a wide range of investment strategies.

Do you require an appraisal for Chapel Hill rental properties?

Yes, DSCR loans typically require a full appraisal to determine the property's market value and to establish the market rent, which is essential for calculating the Debt Service Coverage Ratio. This ensures the property can adequately cover its mortgage payments, a key factor in DSCR loan approval.
