How DSCR Loans Work

DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) is calculated by dividing a rental property's eligible monthly rent by full monthly PITIA (principal, interest, taxes, insurance and association dues) for many 1–4-unit investor programs. Lenders use DSCR to evaluate whether the property may produce enough income to cover its own debt.

DSCR = Eligible Monthly Rent ÷ Full Monthly PITIA

A ratio is a calculation, not an approval threshold. Commercial properties commonly use NOI divided by debt service over the same period instead of rent divided by PITIA.
