Question 1

Can I use Airbnb income to qualify for a DSCR loan in Yreka?

Accepted Answer

Some lenders accept short-term rental income using platforms like AirDNA for market rent estimates. Not all lenders allow it — ask upfront.

Question 2

What DSCR ratio do lenders require?

Accepted Answer

Most want 1.20 or higher. Some lenders accept 1.0, but expect a higher rate or larger down payment at that level.

Question 3

Do I need to show tax returns for a DSCR loan?

Accepted Answer

No. DSCR loans qualify you on the property's rent, not your income. Tax returns are not part of underwriting.

Question 4

Are DSCR loans available for multi-unit properties in Yreka?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Most lenders cover 1-4 unit properties. Some go up to 8 units. Terms vary by lender and property type.

Question 5

How much do I need to put down on a DSCR loan?

Accepted Answer

Plan for 20 to 25 percent down. A few lenders allow 15 percent for strong borrowers, but that's not common. Rates vary by borrower profile and market conditions.

Question 6

Why is a broker better than a bank for DSCR in a small market?

Accepted Answer

Banks rarely offer DSCR products. A broker with wholesale access can shop multiple non-QM lenders and find one comfortable with Yreka's market.
