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 $200,000 to $5,000,000. 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 most 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.
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.

Yes. Purchase, rate-and-term refinance, and cash-out refinance are all available. Maximum LTV is typically 75%.
