Assisted living DSCR works

Assisted living DSCR is for residential assisted living, typically 1 to 4 units in a home-style property. Many DSCR lenders exclude this property type. We allow it, and in most cases we do not require a debt service coverage ratio. We qualify on the property, not your personal tax returns.

Loan amounts typically run from $500,000 to $10,000,000+. Purchase, rate-and-term refinance, and cash out are available. This program cannot fund renovation. Homes over four units are considered case by case. Those larger deals can still get long-term financing, though they are often not on a 30 year amortization.

  • Purchase a 1 to 4 unit residential assisted living home
  • Rate-and-term refinance an existing assisted living loan
  • Cash out typically up to 75% LTV on a stabilized home you already own

Common questions

Assisted living DSCR FAQ

Do assisted living DSCR loans require tax returns?+
In many cases no. We qualify on the property income, not your personal tax returns.
Can I get a DSCR loan on residential assisted living?+
Yes. Most DSCR programs exclude assisted living. We allow 1 to 4 unit residential assisted living as a core fit, and larger homes case by case.
What DSCR do I need on an assisted living loan?+
None, in most cases. That is one reason operators come here when other DSCR programs will not finance assisted living. On loans of $3,000,000 or more, the typical minimum is 1.25x.
How many units can an assisted living DSCR loan cover?+
1 to 4 units is the core of the program. Over four units is considered case by case. Larger homes can still get long-term financing, though they are often not on a 30 year amortization.
Can assisted living DSCR fund renovation?+
No. This program cannot fund renovation. Stabilized, income-producing residential assisted living is the fit. Renovation or lease-up may need a bridge loan first.
Can I get a 30 year fixed on assisted living?+
On 1 to 4 unit homes, often yes. Larger homes are case by case and often not on a 30 year amortization, but long-term financing is still available.
Does the home need a state license?+
Yes. The home should hold the license your state requires for assisted living or residential care, with its licensed bed count. The license is reviewed along with the income.
Can I finance a home that's leased to an operator?+
Yes. Homes leased to an operator are financed on the lease, and owner-operated homes on the home's operating income. Either way, the operator's track record helps.
