Program overview

Keep your low first-mortgage rate and still access your equity. DSCR Second Mortgages are stand-alone second liens underwritten on the property's cash flow, so you can pull capital without a full cash-out refinance or disturbing your existing first mortgage.

Loan amounts range from $75K to $500K, up to 80% CLTV, with a minimum DSCR of 1.0. No reserves are required, and an AVM is allowed on loans under $400K. This program is for long-term rentals of up to 4 units.

Ideal for

  • Investors with a low-rate first mortgage they want to keep
  • Borrowers who need capital without a full cash-out refinance
  • Long-term rental owners with 1-4 units
  • Investors who want to skip reserves and, on loans under $400K, a full appraisal
  • Funding a down payment, renovation or next purchase from existing equity
