Why DSCR works

Three reasons investors choose us.

No Personal Income Verification

Unlike conventional loans that require W-2s and tax returns, DSCR loans focus solely on the property's ability to generate income. Perfect for self-employed investors and those with complex tax situations.

LLC and Corporate Vesting

Borrow directly in the name of your business entity. This provides liability protection and simplifies your investment structure — without requiring personal guarantees in many cases.

No Reserves on Cash-Out

For cash-out refinances, no reserve requirements. For purchase or rate/term refinance, 6 months of reserves are typically required unless DSCR ratio is less than 1.
