With a 30-year amort and 10-year IO options - as well as ability to get rate down quite a bit if you have long-term horizon (5+ years so don't mind prepay) - the rates/terms and monthly payment will likely be very attractive.Others too have done the DSCR Portfolio Loan (Blanket Loan) refinance option too (refinanced the 10 properties that are under conventional into one blanket DSCR Loan and start the process back from 0 on conventional), however, given current rates, don't see it a lot currently since the refinance would typically mean racheting up interest on those
