DSCR Loan Meaning: What does DSCR Mean? DSCR stands for debt service coverage ratio.. What is a DSCR Loan? Our Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) loan is a type of Non-QM financing commonly used in real estate investments. It measures the ability of a property’s income to cover its debt obligations. Debt obligations being the mortgage payments. Rather than your personal income, as the dscr meaning in banking would look at your personal DT (debt to income ratio)I, we look at the property’s DSCR. For our clients looking to hold their properties rather than flipping it. We offer a DSCR real estate long term loan in 30 or 40 year amortizations.

What is a good DSCR Ratio: A good debt service coverage ratio is anything above 1.25. Most lenders will require a minimum DSCR ratio of 1.25. At Tidal Loans we allow our real estate investors to qualify for a DSCR mortgage loan as low as .75. We also will approve a client lower than .75, however it will come with a lower LTV and higher rate. 

Example of a DSCR Ratio Calculation: For example a 1.25 dscr means you the property generates 25% more income over the mortgage payment. Giving the real estate investor 25% of cushion to be able to sleep at night, The higher the number, the better the investor and us as the lender will be able to sleep at night:) 

DSCR Requirements- We provide DSCR finance loans for Single Family Properties, 2-4 units, Multifamily properties, and DSCR Commercial Real Estate Properties. Our clients need to meet the following DSCR loan requirements. 

1.) Minimum credit score of 500 

2.) Rent Ready Property 

3.) Minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least .75 ( the higher the DSCR ratio the better the terms) *Please note if your property does not meet our minimum debt service coverage ratio requirement, we can still fund your deal at a lower LTV and interest higher rate.

The (DSCR) debt service coverage ratio is calculated by dividing the property’s net operating income (NOI) for multi-family properties, or the rental income for 1-4 unit properties, by its total debt service, including principal, interest payments, taxes, insurance and HOA dues. A higher DSCR ratio indicates the deal has a better ability to cover debt payments and typically comes with better rates. Our DSCR mortgage loans are often sought by investors looking to purchase or refinance income-generating properties, such as commercial buildings or multi-unit residential complexes or 1-4 units.

What is the big deal about no seasoning? 

Scaling your real estate investment in Texas at a significant pace is of substantial importance. Consider this, your total cost, including both purchase and renovation, is $100,000. Once the

refurbishment is done and a rental income source secured, the property’s appraised value escalates to $150,000. Most hard money lenders base their loan amount on the ‘loan to cost’ value if you decide to refinance within a year. Our unique approach with our rental property loans in Texas, however, offers investors more cash flow opportunity. 

Unlike a conventional loan that may only give you $75,000 based on the initial cost, our Texas rental property loan program allows you to borrow up to 75% of the new appraised value. This means, you can potentially secure up to $112,500, significantly more than a typical loan amount from a mortgage lender. This enhances our investor’s capacity to grow their portfolio swiftly, seal more deals, and move a step closer to financial freedom via passive income. It’s a unique loan option in the realm of investment property loans, putting real estate investors on the fast track to increased wealth.

We assess factors such as current and projected rental revenue, occupancy rates, and market rental rates (for short term rentals) We calculate the Debt Service Coverage Ratio by dividing the property’s rental income by the anticipated total debt service.DSCR loans enable investors to leverage the cash flow from their investment properties to secure financing for property purchases,

refinancing, or portfolio expansion, offering a tailored solution that aligns with their investment goals.
