A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan is a non-QM (non-qualified mortgage) designed specifically for real estate investors. It qualifies borrowers based on the property's rental income rather than the borrower's personal income. For Nara Visa investors, this means no tax returns, W2s, or pay stubs are required. It's an ideal solution for those looking to quickly grow their portfolio or refinance properties without the common income hurdles of traditional financing, making it perfect for the dynamic rental market here.

We specialize in DSCR loans for a wide range of residential investment properties in Nara Visa, NM. This includes single-family homes (1-4 units), small multi-family properties (up to 20 units), condominiums, and townhomes. The key requirement is that the property must be income-generating or clearly intended for rental purposes.

The DSCR is calculated by dividing the property's gross monthly rental income by its total monthly debt service, which includes principal, interest, property taxes, and insurance (PITI). For example, if a property generates $2,000 in rent and its PITI is $1,500, the DSCR would be 1.33 ($2000 / $1500). A ratio of 1.0 or higher generally indicates that the property's income covers its expenses, and we look for strong DSCRs to ensure the property can comfortably support itself.

While DSCR loans offer more flexibility regarding income verification than conventional mortgages, credit score is still an important factor. We typically look for credit scores starting in the mid-600s, but we review each application holistically. A strong Debt Service Coverage Ratio and sufficient property equity can sometimes help offset slightly lower credit scores, making these loans accessible to a broader range of investors in Nara Visa.
