DSCR vs Conventional Loans

Conventional loans usually have better pricing. DSCR loans are often easier to qualify for as an investor.

The key difference

A conventional loan qualifies you on your personal income and debts. A DSCR loan qualifies the property on its rent.

Choose conventional if

  • You have strong W-2 income that shows on your tax returns
  • You own only a few financed properties
  • You want the lowest possible rate

Choose DSCR if

  • Your tax returns understate your real income
  • You want to close in an LLC
  • You've reached the limit on conventional financed properties
