What is a DSCR mortgage lender?

A DSCR mortgage lender evaluates loan eligibility based on a property’s ability to generate income relative to its debt obligations. Instead of relying on W‑2 income or tax returns, DSCR lenders focus on rental income, operating expenses, and property cash flow — making this approach especially useful for real estate investors.

DSCR loans are commonly used by:
  • Real estate investors purchasing rental properties
  • Buyers of long‑term and short‑term rentals
