Mixed Use DSCR Loans
Finance properties that combine commercial and residential units, such as a storefront with apartments above, using the property’s income.
Income-producing buildings with more than one use
Mixed-use properties pair commercial space with residential units. A Mixed Use DSCR loan looks at the building’s rental income so you can finance a multi-purpose property without relying on personal income documentation.
- For properties with both residential and commercial units
- Qualification centered on the building’s rental income
- Purchase and refinance options for eligible properties
- Diversified income from more than one tenant type
