Frequently Asked Questions from Suffolk County DSCR Clients
What is a DSCR loan and why is it ideal for Suffolk County investors?
A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan is a non-QM (Non-Qualified Mortgage) loan designed specifically for real estate investors. It's ideal for Suffolk County because it qualifies borrowers based on the rental income generated by the investment property, not personal income. This bypasses the stringent income verification of traditional banks, making it perfect for self-employed investors, those with multiple properties, or anyone looking to expand their portfolio in a dynamic market like Greater Boston.
What types of properties qualify for a DSCR loan in Suffolk County?
We primarily lend on residential investment properties in Suffolk County. This includes single-family homes (SFRs), 2-4 unit multi-family properties, and small multi-family apartment buildings (up to 20 units). We also consider properties designated for short-term rentals (e.g., Airbnb) or long-term leases, focusing on the potential rental income generated by the asset.
How is the DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) calculated for Suffolk properties?
The DSCR is calculated by dividing the property's gross rental income (based on an appraisal's rent schedule) by its total debt service (which includes principal, interest, taxes, and insurance - PITI). A DSCR of 1.0 or higher means the property's income covers its expenses. We look for a healthy DSCR, often 1.25x or higher, to ensure the property is a strong investment.
Can I get a DSCR loan in Suffolk County if I'm self-employed or have multiple properties?
Absolutely! DSCR loans are specifically designed for real estate investors, including those who are self-employed or already own multiple properties. Since personal income documentation isn't required, you won't be penalized for having a complex tax situation or for not showing significant personal income. Your ability to get approved is based on the cash flow of the investment property itself.
