DSCR Multifamily Loans
Trusted financing solutions for apartment owners nationwide with competitive rates and flexible terms.
A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan is a real estate investment loan that qualifies borrowers based on property cash flow, rather than personal income or employment. The key metric is the DSCR, which compares a property’s monthly rental income to its monthly debt obligations.
Agency-Backed Financing for Income-Producing Properties
While traditional DSCR loans are often offered by private or non-QM lenders, CMBS, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac also offer programs where DSCR plays a central role, especially for multifamily and investment property financing.
At Commercial Lending USA, we guide you through CMBS, agency-backed and private lending options, helping you choose the best fit for your investment strategy.
