Frequently Asked Questions About Colorado DSCR Loans
What is a DSCR loan and who is it ideal for in Colorado?
A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan is a non-QM (Non-Qualified Mortgage) loan for investment properties where approval is based on the property's cash flow, rather than the borrower's personal income. It's ideal for real estate investors in Colorado looking to purchase or refinance rental properties, especially those who are self-employed, have multiple investment properties, or want to avoid traditional income documentation.
What types of properties are eligible for DSCR loans in Colorado?
We lend on a wide range of investment property types across Colorado, including single-family homes, 2-4 unit multi-family properties, small multi-family buildings (up to 20 units), condos, planned unit developments (PUDs), and even short-term rental properties. Our focus is on the property's income-generating potential.
How is DSCR calculated, and what's a good ratio for a Colorado property?
DSCR is calculated by dividing the property's gross rental income (or projected market rent) by its total debt service (principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and HOA fees). A DSCR of 1.0 or higher means the property's income covers its debt. We typically look for a DSCR of 1.15x or greater, but requirements can vary based on factors like LTV and credit score. Even properties with a DSCR below 1.0 may be considered with sufficient borrower reserves.
Do Colorado DSCR loans require income or employment verification?
No, one of the primary benefits of a DSCR loan is that it does NOT require personal income or employment verification in the traditional sense. We do not ask for W2s, pay stubs, or tax returns. The loan qualification is based on the subject property's projected rental income relative to the proposed mortgage payment, making the process much simpler and faster for real estate investors.
