Loan programs

DSCR rental loans

  • Qualify on the property's rent instead of your personal income. We compare the rent to the full monthly payment (principal, interest, taxes and insurance).
  • Market rent can be used, even if the property is vacant. Deals below a 1.0 ratio can still close with lower leverage.
  • To get approved: a valid ID, 2 months of bank statements and a soft credit pull. No tax returns, no pay stubs, no employment check.
  • Long-term and short-term rentals (including Airbnb), purchase or refinance.
  • Prepayment penalty is optional. A lower or no penalty generally means a higher rate.

Fix and flip loans

  • Up to 90% of the purchase price and 100% of the rehab, subject to underwriting. Down payment as little as 10%.
  • No experience required. More experience gets better terms.
  • We fund distressed and non-livable properties. Rehab money is held in escrow and released in draws as work gets done.
  • Exit by selling, or refinance into a 30-year DSCR loan with us.
