DSCR Investment Property Financing for Virginia Investors

Harness Rental Property Revenue to Fuel Your Investments

Streamlined Capital Access for Virginia's Real Estate Investors

Targeting the high cash flow rental markets of Richmond, Virginia Beach, or Charlottesville? Explore DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) financing options that empower you to capitalize on regional prospects without the burden of conventional personal income checks. From revitalized districts in Richmond to beachfront gems in Virginia Beach, or university-adjacent units in Charlottesville, our tailored funding lets your asset's rent revenue stream speak volumes.

Unlocking Potential: DSCR Financing Benefits for Virginia Property Owners

  • Bypass Personal Income Documentation

Secure funding relying on your investment's rental income rather than tax returns. Perfect for Virginia's energetic urban and coastal zones where high occupancy rates accelerate transactions.

  • Property Income-Focused Eligibility

These loans evaluate your property's revenue generation prowess. Properties in Richmond or Virginia Beach without current leases can still qualify using estimated area rents from these prime spots. Beach rentals or any short-term rental (STR) can qualify using the average annual rents.

  • Customizable DSCR Terms for Scaling

Tailor financing to align with your tactics across Virginia's varied locales. Options abound for everything from Richmond townhomes to Charlottesville apartments.

  • Accelerate Acquisition Pace

Rapid processing and fast approvals allows you to quickly close on your investment property in Virginia's sought-after rental neighborhoods.

Mastering DSCR Financing with a Virginia Edge

Navigating DSCR loans is straightforward and ideally matched to Virginia's dynamic property environment. Underwriters emphasize the debt service coverage ratio, a clear metric comparing rental earnings to debt obligations. Approval hinges on verified or forecasted inflows, sidestepping personal financial disclosures. This cuts administrative load, freeing you to prioritize portfolio development.

How to Calculate Your DSCR Score (and Make It Easier with Our Calculator!)

Understanding your Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) is key to securing the right loan for your rental property. Here's how you can calculate it:

  • Determine Your Annual Rental Income

Add up all the income your property generates in a year. This includes rent and any other consistent income sources.

  • Calculate Your Annual Debt Payments

Add up all the payments you make toward your property's loan(s) in a year, including principal and interest.

  • Divide Income by Debt

Use this formula:

DSCR = Annual Rental Income ÷ Annual Debt Payments

For example, if your property generates $60,000 annually and your debt payments are $50,000, your DSCR is 1.2.

Understand the Threshold

A DSCR of 1.0 means your property breaks even. Most lenders, including Cape Henry Capital, require a DSCR of at least 1.05 for approval.

Simplify the Process with Cape Henry Capital's DSCR Calculator

Why do the math yourself when you can use our DSCR Calculator? Not only does it calculate your DSCR score, but it also estimates your potential interest rate based on your property's performance. It's fast, accurate, and tailored to Maryland's rental markets.
