A DSCR loan, or debt service coverage ratio loan, is a type of mortgage used for purchasing short-term or long-term rental investment properties. With a DSCR loan, borrowers can qualify for a mortgage based on a property’s rental analysis. No personal income or employment information is required to qualify. Debt service coverage ratio or DSCR is a measurement of a property’s expected cash flow to determine ability to repay a mortgage loan. It is calculated by dividing the borrower’s net operating income by their debt obligations, including the debt payment.

FAQ's

How debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) is calculated?
The debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) is a ratio of a property's cash flow to its annual mortgage debt. Angel Oak includes principal, interest, taxes, insurance and HOA fees in the mortgage debt. The ratio is calculated by taking the expected rental payment and dividing it by the annual mortgage debt RDP (Rent Divided PITIA= DSCR).

Example Rent Divided PITIA (RDP)
$1100 Rent / $1000 PITIA = 1.10% DSCR Positive Cash Flow
$1000 Rent / $1000 PITIA = 1.00% DSCR 1 to 1 Break Even
$900 Rent / $1000 PITIA = .90% DSCR Negative Cash Flow
