A DSCR loan is more based on the asset's revenue potential, not your personal qualification, so if a vacation rental/Airbnb property can make money, you might qualify.But even if you could get a DSCR loan, I'd question whether you should get a DSCR loan. 

Another thing to check when running your numbers is the POTENTIAL taxes on the property.

Additionally, the increase in monthly income may not outweigh the potential risks associated with taking on more debt.One potential strategy to consider is to focus on maximizing the income potential of your current properties by increasing rents and potentially leveraging any potential increases in property values.
