Question 1

Can I use a bank statement loan for a rental property?

Accepted Answer

Yes, bank statement loans work for investment properties. But if the rental income covers the payment, DSCR usually prices better.

Question 2

Which loan has a lower down payment?

Accepted Answer

Bank statement loans start at 10% down in some cases. DSCR typically needs 20-25% for standard rentals.

Question 3

Do both loans require tax returns?

Accepted Answer

Neither requires tax returns for income verification. Bank statement uses deposits, DSCR uses the property's rental income.

Question 4

Which has better rates in Jurupa Valley?

Accepted Answer

DSCR often prices lower when the property cash flows well. Bank statement rates depend more on your credit and debt profile. Rates vary by borrower profile and market conditions.

Question 5

Can I combine both loan types?

Accepted Answer

No, you pick one per property. But you can use bank statement on your residence and DSCR on rentals across different purchases.
