DSCR loans are non-QM products. That means banks and credit unions rarely offer them. You need wholesale lenders who specialize in investor deals.
At SRK CAPITAL, we shop DSCR programs across 200+ wholesale lenders. Rates and terms vary significantly between lenders. Rates vary by borrower profile and market conditions.
04
The biggest mistake I see on DSCR deals: investors use current rent instead of market rent. Lenders use an appraisal's rent schedule, not your lease.
If your property rents below market, that kills your ratio. Before you apply, know what a comparable unit actually rents for in Turlock.
05
Hard money loans are faster but expensive — short terms, high rates. DSCR loans offer 30-year fixed options and real hold-period financing.
Bank statement loans look at your deposits. DSCR loans ignore your income entirely. For investors with complex taxes, DSCR is usually the cleaner path.
06
Turlock's rental market is driven by Cal State Stanislaus students and ag-sector workers. Both groups create consistent tenant demand year-round.
Multi-unit properties in Turlock can be strong DSCR candidates. More doors means more combined rent to support your ratio.
