Built for Real Estate Investors. No W-2s. No Tax Returns. No Personal Income Verification.
If you're a real estate investor with strong rental property income but complex personal finances, a DSCR loan is the smartest financing tool available. At Onyx Capital Lending, we've funded over $300 million in investor loans — and DSCR is one of our most powerful programs.
What Is a DSCR Loan?
A Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) loan qualifies you based on the income the property generates — not your personal tax returns, W-2s, or employment history.
The formula is simple:
DSCR = Monthly Rental Income ÷ Monthly Debt Payment
A DSCR of 1.0 means the property pays for itself. A DSCR above 1.0 means it generates profit on top of the mortgage — and that's all we need to approve your loan.
Who Is a DSCR Loan For?
✅ Real estate investors with multiple properties
✅ Self-employed borrowers with write-offs that reduce taxable income
✅ Investors who can't show "traditional" income on paper
✅ Foreign nationals investing in US real estate
✅ Borrowers who have been turned down by conventional lenders
✅ Anyone scaling a rental portfolio quickly

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use projected rental income if the property is vacant?
Yes — we can use market rent from a licensed appraiser's rent schedule if the property is not currently leased.
Can I hold the property in an LLC?
Absolutely. We lend to LLCs, LPs, and corporations. In fact, we encourage it for liability protection.
What credit score do I need?
Most DSCR programs start at a 620 credit score...
