Financing Strategies for Real Estate Investors
Explore financing options designed around rental income, renovation plans, portfolio goals, property type, and investment strategy.
DSCR Loans
A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan may evaluate a property's rental income relative to its debt obligations as part of qualification, rather than relying solely on the borrower's personal income. This can be useful for investors with multiple properties or complex income structures. Requirements vary by lender and program.
Portfolio Loans
Portfolio loans are held by the lender rather than sold on the secondary market, which may allow for more flexible underwriting. These may be suitable for investors with multiple properties or non-standard income profiles.
Investment Property Loans
Traditional investment property loans for purchasing residential rental properties. Qualification considers credit, income, and the property's expected performance.
Rental Property Financing
Financing for properties intended to be held as rentals, whether single-family or small multifamily. The right structure depends on your cash flow goals and long-term hold strategy.
Fix-and-Flip Loans
Short-term financing designed to cover both acquisition and renovation costs for properties you intend to renovate and sell. Repayment typically comes from the sale proceeds.
Bridge Financing
Short-term loans that help investors move quickly on acquisitions or bridge the gap between buying a new property and selling or refinancing an existing one.
Construction Loans
Financing for ground-up construction or major renovation, with funds typically released in draws tied to construction milestones.
Rehab-to-Permanent Financing
A combined loan that covers purchase and renovation costs, then converts to long-term financing once the work is complete. This can streamline the process for fix-and-hold investors.
Multifamily Financing
Loans for properties with multiple rental units, from small multifamily buildings to larger apartment communities. Financing structures depend on property size, cash flow, and investor strategy.
