Bonus: DSCR Loans Explained (Finance Ren...

Rental Income Podcast
About this episode
On this episode, Caeli Ridge breaks down how to buy a rental property using a DSCR loan — a type of financing where the lender doesn’t care about your personal income.
  • No tax returns.
  • No pay stubs.
  • No bank statements.

Instead, the loan is based on the income the property will generate. Caeli walks us through real examples of what kind of purchase price and rent numbers make a deal work, how lenders determine expected rent, and what kind of down payment you'll need. We also cover:
  • The types of properties that qualify
  • How DSCR loan rates compare to traditional financing
  • Prepayment penalties to watch out for
  • Whether cash-out refis are possible with this loan type
