Looking for help with DSCR Loans
20 February 2024 | 6 replies
Hey @Mario J PerezAdvantages - Processing time, underwriting conditions, paperwork requirements, not impacting debt-to-income and/or personal credit, can own many and close in entities reducing personal liability (to name a few).Disadvantages - Rates tend to be a tick higher (less and less these days) and fees will be a few thousand more per deal, can be very regional, higher appraisal costs usually (based on the need for a 1007 rent market analysis on every one), can have weird underwriting conditions (lender specific)30,000 foot view at it, but the entity/personal credit side of things make DSCR loans really helpful as you start to scale, and especially if you are doing any personal borrowing for personal homes, cars, etc.Hope that helps!
