How We Calculate DSCR: The 1.00 Ratio

DSCR = Monthly Rent ÷ Monthly PITIA (principal, interest, taxes, insurance and HOA). A 1.00 ratio means the rent covers the full payment. Example: $2,900 rent ÷ $2,900 PITIA = 1.00. Above 1.00, the property cash flows. Below 1.00? Most of our investors go as low as a 0.75 DSCR, and No-Ratio programs are available when the rent doesn't need to cover the payment.

Rent We Can Use

↗

A signed long-term lease.

↗

The appraiser's market rent schedule (Form 1007).

↗

Short-term rental income (Airbnb, VRBO and similar), based on rental history or market data, depending on the investor.

↗

Your investing experience affects which rent source and minimum ratio an investor accepts. First-time investors may need a 1.00 or higher.

Flexibility That Helps You Qualify

↗

Add a partner or family member to title or your LLC and qualify using their credit.

↗

No ownership seasoning required with some of our investors. Others require 6–12 months of ownership before a cash-out.

↗

Close in your LLC, with no tax returns, W-2s or pay stubs.

↗

Minimum 620 credit score. Foreign national programs do not require a U.S. credit score.

How the Equity-to-Portfolio Strategy Works

1

Refinance the rental you own

A DSCR cash-out refinance replaces your current loan with a larger one, typically up to 75–80% of the appraised value depending on the investor.

2

Pull out the equity

The difference between the new loan and your current balance, less closing costs, comes back to you as cash.

3

Use it as down payments

That cash becomes the down payment, closing costs and reserves on one or more income-producing properties.

4

Qualify each on its rent

Each new purchase can be financed with a DSCR loan that qualifies on that property's rent and can close in your LLC.

How a DSCR Purchase Works

1

Pick the rental

Choose a property that rents for at least its full payment, or close to it.

2

Rent qualifies the loan

We use the lease, the appraiser's 1007 market rent or short-term rental data instead of tax returns.

3

Bring down payment and reserves

DSCR purchases can start at 15% down with some investors. TAG recommends 25% down so the property cash flows and to avoid Loan-Level Price Adjustments (LLPAs) that apply when rent does not cover the payment.

4

Close in your name or LLC

Close as an individual or in your LLC, then repeat on the next one.
