Frequently Asked Questions from Durham, NH DSCR Loan Clients
What is a DSCR loan and why is it ideal for Durham, NH rental properties?
A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan is a non-QM (non-qualified mortgage) loan designed for real estate investors. It qualifies borrowers based on the rental income generated by the investment property, not personal income or W-2s. For Durham, where rental demand is consistent (especially with UNH), DSCR loans are perfect for acquiring properties without traditional income documentation, making the process smoother and faster for investors.
What types of properties qualify for a DSCR loan in Durham, NH?
We lend on a wide range of residential investment properties in Durham, including single-family homes, 2-4 unit multi-family properties, and small multifamily buildings up to 20 units. This also includes properties intended for short-term rental strategies, which are increasingly popular in areas like Durham. The key is that the property must be income-producing.
How is the DSCR ratio calculated for a Durham investment property?
The DSCR is calculated by dividing the property's gross rental income (or projected rental income, for purchases) by its total debt service (principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and HOA fees). A DSCR of 1.0 or higher indicates the property's income can cover its expenses. We typically look for a DSCR of 1.25 or greater, but flexible options exist even for lower ratios, making it accessible for various Durham investment scenarios.
Do I need to reside in Durham, NH to secure a DSCR loan?
No, DSCR loans are specifically for investment properties, meaning you do not need to live in Durham or even New Hampshire to qualify. Many of our clients are out-of-state investors looking to capitalize on the strong rental market in Durham. Our focus is on the property's ability to generate income, making it ideal for both local and remote investors.
