Rate assumptions
No verified saved pricing is available for this selection. Assumptions and numbers will appear together when a compatible example is available.
Credit, equity, property use, rental-income treatment, reserves, fees and program requirements affect your options. One point is 1% of the loan amount; zero points does not mean zero closing costs. Review the selected prepayment penalty’s calculation with your loan officer.
Your actual rate, APR, payment and costs may be higher. Subject to underwriting and credit approval. Not an approval, commitment to lend, formal Loan Estimate or rate lock.

THE NUMBERS BEHIND THE RATE
Compare the whole DSCR quote.
A lower rate is one part of the decision.
Keep the property and loan assumptions consistent.
- Interest rate & APR
- The rate measures borrowing interest. APR also reflects points and certain finance charges. Neither number is your total monthly property expense.
- Points & closing costs
- One point is 1% of the loan amount. The rate change depends on actual pricing. Zero points does not mean zero closing costs.
- Payment & prepayment
- Budget for taxes, insurance and other property expenses alongside principal and interest. Review how any early-payoff penalty is calculated.

THE FLORIDA PROPERTY PICTURE
Build the Florida insurance picture before the payment comparison.
A mortgage’s principal-and-interest payment is only one part of owning a Florida rental. Obtain an insurance quote that reflects the property’s use, construction, roof, location and requested coverage. Do not assume the seller’s premium or an owner-occupied policy is the right estimate for your rental.
Ask the agent to explain covered causes of loss, wind or hurricane deductibles, exclusions and any separate flood policy. Flood coverage is generally separate from a standard property policy. A lender’s insurance requirements and your own risk assessment are related questions, but they are not interchangeable.
For a condominium or property in an association, request the governing documents, current dues and any known assessments. Discuss the project and insurance documentation with the loan officer before relying on a rate example. Short-term rental use and local permissions require their own review; this page focuses on long-term, non-owner-occupied rental financing.
UNDERSTANDING DSCR
A rental you
will not live in.
Debt-service coverage ratio compares qualifying rental income with a program-defined property obligation. This path covers long-term, non-owner-occupied rentals for business purposes. Credit, equity, reserves and other requirements still apply.
- The program defines the ratioRent evidence, payment components and minimum coverage depend on the selected program.
- Purpose mattersA refinance or cash-out request also needs a qualifying business purpose and use of proceeds.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Before you
make your move.
Need help with a specific property?
Does the displayed DSCR payment include Florida insurance or flood coverage?
The rate card shows principal and interest only. Obtain actual property and flood insurance estimates as applicable, plus taxes and association costs. Ask the loan officer which payment components the selected DSCR program uses in its qualification calculation.
Can I rely on the seller’s Florida insurance premium?
A new policy can reflect different coverage, rental use and underwriting information. Request your own quote before finalizing a budget. Ask the insurance agent to explain deductibles, exclusions and any separate flood policy rather than comparing premiums alone.
What is a DSCR loan?
DSCR financing evaluates qualifying rental income against a program-defined property obligation. This path is for long-term, non-owner-occupied rentals with a qualifying business purpose. Credit, equity, reserves, property type and other underwriting requirements still apply.
Is the rate on this page my rate?
The card shows a saved representative example with its actual date and assumptions. Your property, credit, equity, purpose and the selected program determine your personalized options. An example is not an offer, approval or rate lock.
What should I compare beyond the interest rate?
Keep the scenario consistent and compare APR, points, closing costs, principal and interest, and any prepayment penalty. Include taxes, insurance, HOA dues and operating costs in your own property budget. The lowest interest rate does not necessarily mean the lowest total cost over your holding period.
Can I refinance or access equity?
Rate-and-term and cash-out refinance are separate scenarios. Eligibility depends on the property, equity, existing financing, business purpose and selected program. Cash-out proceeds also need an eligible use; the purchase example does not establish refinance pricing.
Can I speak to a loan officer without completing a quote?
Yes. Choose the contact option to enter your contact details and confirm the property state and purpose in the private experience. You do not have to request pricing first.
