DSCR loans for Massachusetts rental investors

A DSCR loan lets the property carry the qualification. The lender measures whether the rent covers the full monthly payment; if the ratio clears their floor and the rest of the file fits, your personal income documentation never enters the picture. As a broker, we match your deal to the wholesale lender whose program fits it best.

Quick answer

DSCR stands for debt service coverage ratio: monthly rent divided by monthly PITIA (principal, interest, taxes, insurance and association dues). These are business-purpose loans for non-owner-occupied investment property, arranged through a broker who shops wholesale lenders on your behalf.

Qualify on rent, not income

The debt service coverage ratio divides monthly rent by the full payment — principal, interest, taxes, insurance and dues. Your tax returns stay in the drawer.

Entity-friendly

Most wholesale lenders vest in an LLC with personal guarantees, so liability and bookkeeping stay where investors want them.

Built for 1-4 units and beyond

Singles, condos, doubles and triple-deckers are core product. Portfolios and short-term rentals have programs of their own.

What every DSCR file has in common

Whatever the program, the underwriting spine is the same: the property’s rent, the full monthly payment, your credit and reserves, and the building’s condition and marketability. Massachusetts adds its own wrinkles — assessments that lag sale prices, landlord insurance on century-old stock, condo dues inside the payment — and our job is to put real numbers on all of them before you spend money on an appraisal.
