Frequently Asked Questions from California DSCR Loan Clients
What is a DSCR loan and why is it ideal for California rental investors?
A Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) loan is an investment property loan where eligibility is determined by the property's cash flow rather than the borrower's personal income. It's ideal for California investors because it allows you to qualify for financing based on the property's ability to cover its own mortgage payments, making it perfect for growing a rental portfolio without traditional income verification hurdles.
Do I need to show my personal income or employment history?
No, one of the primary benefits of a DSCR loan is that we do not require personal income verification (like W2s or tax returns) or employment history. Qualification is based on the property's projected or existing rental income relative to its mortgage payments, and your credit score.
What types of residential investment properties qualify for DSCR loans in California?
We lend on a wide range of residential investment properties throughout California, including single-family homes, duplexes, triplexes, quadplexes, small multi-family properties up to 20 units, condos, and townhomes. The property must be income-producing or have strong rental potential.
How is the DSCR ratio calculated and what's a good ratio?
The DSCR ratio is calculated by dividing the property's gross rental income by its total debt service (principal, interest, taxes, insurance, HOA). A ratio of 1.0 means the property's income exactly covers its debt. Lenders typically look for a DSCR of 1.20 or higher for optimal terms, but we have programs starting as low as 0.75-1.0, meaning properties with slightly negative cash flow can still qualify.
