You can refinance with a loan that uses your personal income and debt to income / DTI ratio or a DSCR loan that will use the rental income to structure the loan.

DSCR loans won't use your income to underwrite the loan.
DSCR loans are based off of down payment, credit score and either actual or market rents so it helps to supercharge an investor's real estate goals and net worth.
Here's a bit more in detail about how rates are calculated for DSCR loans:
1. Credit score- the higher the best. 760-780+ generally gets best pricing for investment property loans with most lenders. From there every 20 point increment affect pricing differently. So for example, a 761 credit score will be in the 760-779 credit category, then going down to 740-759 and so on.
2. Loan to value ratio: The higher the loan to value ratio (LTV) is, pricing takes a hit. So your pricing will be higher for a 80% LTV loan than for a 60% LTV loan.
3. Prepayment penalties- usually 1-5 year terms. The shorter the prepayment term has an impact on increasing the rate.
4. Are you cash flowing the property? More on how that is calculated below. Is your DSCR ratio greater than 1-meaning are you cash flowing (according to the lender's criteria of mortgage, property taxes and insurance (and HOA) if applicable). Many lenders will not do a DSCR loan unless cash flowing. If they will do a loan with less than 1, the pricing takes a hit. This criteria is for 1-4 and 5-8 unit programs.
I've included an example below to help illustrate this.
So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.
See example below:
DSCR < 1
Principal + Interest = $1,700
Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50
Total PITIA = $2200
Rent = $2000
DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91
Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.
DSCR >1
Principal + Interest = $1,500
Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25
Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300
DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23
If a purchase, you also generally need reserves / savings to show you have 3-6 month payments of PITIA (principal / interest (mortgage payment), property taxes and insurance and HOA (if applicable). If a cash out refinance, many lenders will allow the cash out to satisfy the reserves requirement.
DSCR lenders generally let you vest either individually or as an LLC. It's a great way to increase your net worth and these loans can also be used to pull cash out of a property as it appreciates allowing you to reinvest money into new deals.

If you have a credit score and at least 3 tradelines or lines of credit that are currently being used financial statements aren't necessary for conventional or DSCR loans. Conventional loans will use your personal income, credit score and debt to income (DTI) ratio. DSCR loans will be structured off the rent versus expenses on the property and don't consider your personal income or DTI. Having the down payment, minimum credit score and DSCR ratio is how these loans are structured.

This reply is fantastic! And super info dense so I am going to need to dig into it. I really appreciate the time and effort you put into it!
You're welcome- happy you find it useful!
There are DSCR rental property loans for foreign nationals (non-U.S. citizens who don't live in the U.S) that are 25% down for a single family rental property and 30% down for a 2-4 unit property. Minimum loan amount is $100,000. The loan options vary by state. U.S. credit is not necessary as the loan will be assigned a 680 credit score.

Seller contributions are capped by lenders. Generally around 3-6% depending on the down payment. Lenders want the buyers to use their own funds for down payments. They will often ask for two months of bank statements to check on status of funds. If there are large deposits the underwriter will ask for a signed letter of explanation from the borrower along with supporting documents. For example if a borrower is using cash from a cash out refinance, the borrower would have to provide the letter of explanation along with the closing statement to show that the cash out refinance happened.
There are some lenders who don't ask for bank statements for seasoning.

Why are people saying 2-4units gross numbers are too small to survive off of and the it's very stressful, they say thats why banks check the credit score and care less for the property?
Cash flowing properties depending on a lot of factors but location is a big one. Mortgage brokers who specialize in investment properties and who have experience have relationships with lenders that specialize in investment property programs that have better terms such as getting a better rate with a DSCR 1 ratio vs DSCR 1.2 ratio. Meaning you will get a better rate if the mortgage, property taxes and insurance (and HOA if applicable), are at or below $1,000 if the rent is $1,000 (DSCR 1 ratio) versus it having to stay below $1,200 (DSCR 1.2 ratio). I chose these numbers to illustrate the math more easily. It's important to work with the right mortgage professional as mortgage professionals are not all equal in expertise, experience or lender relationships.
How can someone find on the right Mortgage professional; and vet them?
There are mortgage professionals online and you can do your research there or from personal recommendations. I'm also a mortgage professional and I'll send you a direct message.

Correct me if I'm wrong, what you're telling me is the 2-4 unit property will cash flow, depending on the:
- Location
- Mortgage Broker
- The Mortgage Broker Relationships with the Lenders
- The programs the Lenders have available for the Mortgage broker, for the buyer, for the property.
