DSCR Loans in Weed
Weed sits at the base of Mount Shasta, where rental properties serve tourists, seasonal workers, and long-term residents. DSCR loans let you buy these income properties without showing W-2s or tax returns.
Most investors in Siskiyou County use DSCR financing because rental income matters more than personal income. The property cash flow qualifies you, not your job history or 1040s.
You need a DSCR of 1.0 or higher—meaning rent covers the full mortgage payment. Most lenders want 20-25% down and a 640+ credit score.
Higher DSCRs unlock better rates. A property renting for $2,000 with a $1,600 mortgage payment gives you a 1.25 DSCR, which gets aggressive pricing.
DSCR lenders price deals on two things: your ratio and the property strength. A 1.25 DSCR rental in decent condition gets better terms than a 1.05 DSCR fixer.
We access 40+ non-QM lenders who compete on DSCR pricing. Some waive reserves for strong ratios. Others lend in LLC names without personal guarantees.
Most Weed investors assume they need conventional financing first. Wrong. DSCR works as your first investment property or your tenth—no loan count limits like Fannie Mae.
Order the appraisal with a rent schedule included. That rental estimate determines your DSCR. A low appraisal kills conventional deals; a low rent estimate kills DSCR deals.
Conventional investor loans cap at 10 properties and require full tax returns. DSCR has no property limit and skips income docs entirely.
Bank statement loans work for business owners buying personal residences. DSCR works for anyone buying rental properties. Different tools for different goals.
Weed's rental market splits between long-term locals and short-term Mount Shasta visitors. DSCR lenders count long-term rent at full value but discount short-term rental income by 25%.
Siskiyou County properties often need septic and well inspections. Budget extra time—some DSCR lenders want those reports before closing, especially on rural parcels.
Most lenders require 1.0 minimum, meaning rent covers the mortgage. A 1.25 ratio gets you better rates and terms.
Appraisers provide a market rent estimate even on vacant properties. You don't need existing tenants to qualify.
Yes, but lenders typically discount short-term rental income by 25%. Long-term leases get full credit toward your DSCR.
Standard is 20-25% down. Some lenders go to 15% on strong properties with high DSCR ratios above 1.3.
