Frequently Asked Questions from Putnam County Investors
What is a DSCR loan and why is it ideal for investment properties in Putnam County, IL?
A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan is a non-QM (non-qualified mortgage) loan designed specifically for real estate investors. It assesses the property's income against its debt obligations, meaning your personal income is generally not verified. This makes it ideal for Putnam County investors because it simplifies financing for rental properties, especially for self-employed individuals or those with multiple investment properties, allowing them to expand their portfolios without traditional income hurdles.
How is the DSCR calculated for properties in Putnam County?
The DSCR is calculated by dividing the property's Net Operating Income (NOI) by its total debt service (principal and interest payments). For example, if a property generates $2,000 in NOI per month and the mortgage payment is $1,600, the DSCR would be 1.25x. Lenders typically look for a DSCR of 1.00x or higher, with 1.25x being a common benchmark for strong cash flow properties.
What types of investment properties do you lend on in Putnam County?
We provide DSCR loans for a wide range of residential investment properties across Putnam County. This includes single-family homes, 2-4 unit multi-family properties, and small multi-family apartment buildings up to 20 units. Our focus is exclusively on non-owner-occupied investment properties; these loans are not for primary residences or owner-occupied businesses.
Do DSCR loans require personal income verification or tax returns?
No, a significant advantage of DSCR loans is that they typically do NOT require personal income verification, W-2s, or tax returns. The loan qualification is primarily based on the subject property's projected rental income and its ability to cover the mortgage payments (the DSCR), along with the borrower's credit score and liquidity. This streamlines the application process considerably for investors.
