It is important to keep in mind that DSCR is just one factor that lenders consider when evaluating a loan application, and other factors such as property condition, location, and market conditions also play a role.It is also a good idea to consult with a financial advisor or loan officer to get a better understanding of the loan requirements and to get an idea of how your investment property will be evaluated by lenders.Feel free to reach out if you need more feedback, happy to help.
