What is a DSCR loan?

Qualified by the property, not just the paperwork.

A debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) loan is rental property financing underwritten primarily on how the property's income compares to its debt payments. A ratio above 1.0 means the rent covers the payment; below 1.0 means it covers part of it.

AE Capital Partners' buy and hold program allows a minimum DSCR of 0.75, giving investors room to finance properties that are still growing into their rents.
