What does this mean?

A DSCR below 1.0 means the property doesn't generate enough income to cover its debt payments. The investor must cover the shortfall out of pocket. Most lenders won't fund this deal.

Why DSCR matters

DSCR loans let investors qualify based on the property's income — not personal W-2s or tax returns. The ratio tells lenders whether the rental income can cover the mortgage. A higher DSCR means lower risk and often better rates.
