The California DSCR Loan Specialists
We understand California's rental market — from Los Angeles' massive rental demand to the Bay Area's tech-driven tenant base, San Diego's coastal appeal, and Sacramento's affordable growth corridor.
No Income Docs Required
Forget tax returns, W-2s, and pay stubs. Your California rental property's income does the qualifying — not yours.* Ideal for tech executives, self-employed investors, and high-net-worth individuals.
Lightning Fast Closings
Close your California rental property in as little as 5–10 business days.* Speed matters in competitive markets like Los Angeles, San Diego, and the Bay Area.
STR & Airbnb Welcome
We accept short-term rental income from Airbnb and VRBO for DSCR qualification in markets like Palm Springs, Big Bear, Lake Tahoe, and California's entire coast.
Understand & Calculate Your California DSCR Ratio
The Debt Service Coverage Ratio is the single most important number in rental property lending.
PITI = Principal + Interest + Property Taxes + Insurance. A higher DSCR means more cushion — and better rates.

"I own Airbnb properties in Palm Springs. American Prime Rate accepted my STR income for DSCR qualification — no other lender was willing to do that. Closed in under 10 days."

What Are DSCR Loans in California?
DSCR loans in California are investment property mortgages that qualify borrowers based on the rental income a property generates — not personal income, tax returns, or W-2s. A DSCR of 1.0 or above means the property pays for itself — and that's typically all you need to qualify.
How California DSCR Loans Work
California DSCR lenders evaluate deals based on the property's LTV, current lease agreements or market rent comparables, and the borrower's credit score. No income documentation, no DTI calculation, no employment verification. Funds can be deployed in as little as 5–10 business days.*
DSCR vs Traditional Loans in California
Traditional California mortgages require W-2s, tax returns, and strict DTI limits. DSCR loans bypass all of this, qualifying solely on the California property's rental income potential — the preferred financing tool for California's most sophisticated real estate investors.
