Investors, brokers, and borrowers can use the DSCR Calculator to analyze a properties income generating potential.
The Debt-Service-Coverage-Ratio Calculator, or DSCR Calculator for short, measures whether the incoming cash flows are sufficient to pay back the loan. It’s a metric commonly used in commercial lending that has moved into residential income generating lending.
Calculating a DSCR Ratio is pretty straight forward: DSCR = NOI / Debt Service
- DSCR – Debt Service Ratio
- NOI – Monthly Net Operating Income
- Debt Service – Monthly Mortgage Payments, Taxes, Insurance, and HOA Dues
It’s important to note that DSCR Loans are designed for real estate investors. If purchasing a primary residence, another type of loan will be needed, such as a Conventional, FHA, or VA loan.
Use this DSCR Calculator to run purchase and refinance scenarios for short-term and long-term rental properties. Analyze a properties performance potential by looking at the DSCR, Cap Rate, Cash Flow, and Cash on Cash Returns.
