Frequently Asked Questions About Florida & NY DSCR Loans
What is a DSCR loan and why is it ideal for Florida & NY rental property investors?
A Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) loan is a type of mortgage for investment properties where approval is based on the property's rental income covering its debt obligations (PITI - Principal, Interest, Taxes, Insurance). It's ideal for FL & NY investors because it removes the need for personal income verification, allowing for faster approvals and easier portfolio expansion, especially in competitive markets like Miami, Orlando, NYC, and Long Island.
What types of properties qualify for DSCR loans in Florida and New York?
We lend on a wide range of non-owner occupied investment properties across Florida and New York. This includes single-family homes, 2-4 unit multi-family residences, small multi-family buildings up to 20 units, condominiums, and townhouses. The key is that the property must be rented out or intended for rental.
How is the DSCR calculated, and what's a typical requirement for FL & NY properties?
The DSCR is calculated by dividing the property's gross monthly rental income by its total monthly debt service (PITI). For example, if a property generates $2,000 in rent and its PITI is $1,500, the DSCR is 1.33 ($2,000 / $1,500). Most lenders, including Waterman Capital, typically look for a DSCR of 1.0x or higher, meaning the rent fully covers the mortgage payment. A higher DSCR (e.g., 1.25x) indicates stronger cash flow and can lead to better terms.
How fast can I get funded for a DSCR loan in Florida or NY?
While DSCR loans are generally faster than conventional bank loans, they typically require more time than hard money due to more extensive underwriting. For qualified Florida and New York projects, we aim to close DSCR loans efficiently, usually within 15-30 business days. Our streamlined process focuses on getting you funded as quickly as possible.
Do you require an appraisal for Florida and NY DSCR properties?
Yes, DSCR loans typically require a full appraisal to determine the property's fair market value and its projected rental income. This differs from some hard money loans that may use a BPO. The appraisal is a standard part of the DSCR loan process to ensure the property's value and cash flow align with underwriting requirements.
