Close your rental in an LLC
DSCR loans commonly close in an entity's name, which is why investors love them: liability separation, no personal income docs, and qualification that's just the property's rent divided by its full payment (PITIA). A ratio of 1.0 covers the payment; 1.25+ earns the best pricing.
Gig income counts — document it right
Uber, DoorDash, Instacart, freelance platforms — lenders aggregate it all as self-employment income. Route payouts into one account, keep your 1099s, and show about two years of history. Bank statement and 1099 loans capture what the apps actually paid you, not what survived your mileage deduction.
DSCR loans for real estate investors
Buying a rental? A DSCR loan qualifies you on the property's cash flow instead of your personal income — no tax returns, no pay stubs. With interest-only options and entity (LLC) eligibility, it's the go-to for investors growing a portfolio.
Yes — DSCR loans commonly close in an LLC or other entity, which many investors prefer for liability separation. The property qualifies on its rent versus its full payment (PITIA), not your personal income.
What documents will I need?
Generally 12–24 months of statements, proof of self-employment (license, incorporation docs, or a CPA letter), and asset statements for your down payment and reserves.
Do bank statement loans work for real estate agents?
They're one of the best fits. Commission deposits qualify you, and 24 months of statements smooths seasonal swings. If your brokerage 1099s your gross commissions, a 1099 loan counting 90-100% of gross may be even stronger.
What DSCR ratio do lenders want?
A DSCR of 1.0 means rent covers the full payment; many lenders price best at 1.25 or higher. Some programs allow ratios below 1.0 with stronger down payments and reserves.
Will moving money between my accounts hurt my application?
It can muddy the file. Transfers between your own accounts get excluded so they aren't double-counted, and frequent overdrafts or NSFs are red flags. Keep deposits clean and consistent in the months before applying.
How much of my deposits count as income?
Typically 100% of personal-account deposits, or about 50% of business-account deposits, sometimes adjusted by a CPA expense letter. Roughly $20,000/month in business deposits can support about a $350,000 home.
