DSCR Loans in Arizona
About
What Is a DSCR Loan?
A Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) loan is an investment property mortgage that determines eligibility based on the cash flow generated by the property.
Instead of requiring extensive income documentation, lenders analyze whether the property’s rental income can comfortably cover the mortgage payment.
If the rental income meets the lender’s required DSCR threshold, borrowers may qualify even without traditional employment documentation.
This structure makes DSCR loans particularly appealing to investors with multiple properties or complex income streams.
You may qualify for a DSCR loan in Arizona if you meet these common requirements:
- Investment Property Only (Primary residences are not eligible)
- DSCR Ratio: Typically 0.75–1.25 or higher
- Credit Score: Generally 620 or above
- Down Payment: Usually 15–25% depending on the program
- Rental Income: Long-term or short-term rental income accepted
- No Personal Income Verification Needed
