When You Want to Build Wealth Without Showing Your W-2
What if you could buy rental properties without proving your personal income? What if the property's rental income was all that mattered for qualification?
That's exactly what DSCR loans do - they focus on the property's ability to pay for itself, not your job or tax returns.
For single moms building rental portfolios, this removes the biggest qualification hurdle.
What Is a DSCR Loan?
DSCR = Debt Service Coverage Ratio
Simple translation: Does the rent cover the mortgage payment?
Key Benefits:
✅No tax returns required
✅No W-2s needed
✅No personal income verification
✅Close in 20 days
✅Rates starting at 6.5%
✅Just 1.5 points
The lender only cares about one thing: Will the rent pay the mortgage?
How the DSCR Formula Works
DSCR = Monthly Rent ÷ Monthly Mortgage Payment
You need a score of 1.05 or higher (rent slightly exceeds mortgage)
Example 1 - PASSES:
Property costs: $200,000
Monthly rent: $2,000
Monthly mortgage: $1,400
DSCR: $2,000 ÷ $1,400 = 1.43 ✅
Example 2 - FAILS:
Property costs: $170,000
Monthly rent: $1,200
Monthly mortgage: $1,400
DSCR: $1,200 ÷ $1,400 = 0.86 ❌
See? It's just math. If rent covers mortgage with cushion, you qualify.
