Frequently Asked Questions

How often can I refinance my mortgage?

There is no limit to the number of times you can refinance. However, you must qualify every time you apply and there will be costs associated with closing the loan each time.

Can I buy a home if I do not have money for a down payment?

Yes! There are a number of bond programs that offer low or no down payment financing options.

How do I know which mortgage is right for me?

The key to choosing the right mortgage is to understand the range of options and features available to you, as well as your budget, circumstances, and goals. Our licensed mortgage professionals are here to help you navigate that process. The more you know, the more comfortable and confident you will be choosing the best option for you and your family.

How long will the loan process take?

The Truth in Lending Act (TILA) does not permit a lender to close a loan until at least seven (7) business days have passed from the date your application was received. A typical home loan takes 30 days, as a number of third-party services such as appraisals, title work, and credit are required in conjunction with the mortgage process. Once you familiarize your Loan Officer with the details of your specific loan scenario, they will be able to provide you with a more specific timeline.

Will I qualify for a home loan?

The only way to find out is to speak with a qualified mortgage professional. Our Loan Officers have helped numerous clients who didn’t know if they could qualify to become home owners. We take the time to understand your financial situation and long-term financial goals, and then match you with the loan program that best fits your needs. Your approval for a loan may also largely depend on the price of the home you are financing. Getting pre-qualified prior to beginning your home search can give you an idea of what you may be able to afford.

Why do people refinance their mortgages?

Homeowners typically refinance to save money, either by obtaining a lower interest rate or by reducing the term of their loan. Refinancing is also a way to convert an adjustable loan to a fixed loan or to consolidate debts.

How much money will I have to pay upfront to buy a home?

This question does not have a simple, one-size-fits-all answer. The exact amount will depend on the price of the home you buy as well the type of mortgage financing you choose. Depending on your loan program, your down payment could be as much as 20% of the home’s price or as little as 3%, while some loans require no down payment at all.

Can I get a mortgage after bankruptcy?

You may still qualify for a home loan even if you have experienced a bankruptcy. The best way to find out if you qualify is to talk with a Loan Officer to discuss your options. Be sure to bring all paperwork regarding your bankruptcy so your Loan Officer can find the program that best fits your situation.

Should I lock my interest rate now, or wait until we are closer to our closing?

Interest rates fluctuate all day, every day. If an interest rate is good, it may be in your best interest to lock now. If you wait, you run the risk of an increase in rates later. If you are concerned that rates may go down after you lock, contact your Loan Officer to discuss your options. Some programs allow you to lock for an extended period and choose to lower your rate should a better one become available.

DSCR: Cómo los Inversionistas Pueden Usar los Ingresos de una Propiedad Para Calificar un Préstamo

DSCR: CÓMO LOS INVERSIONISTAS PUEDEN UTILIZAR LOS INGRESOS DE UNA PROPIEDAD PARA CALIFICAR

October 09, 2026•4 min read

Cuando las personas piensan en obtener un mortgage, normalmente piensan en su salario, W-2s, tax returns y credit score. Pero ¿qué pasa si la propiedad que quieres comprar puede tener un papel importante para calificar para el préstamo?

Esa es la idea detrás de un DSCR loan.

DSCR significa Debt Service Coverage Ratio. Es una medida que permite evaluar si los ingresos generados por una propiedad de inversión son suficientes para cubrir sus obligaciones de deuda.

Para los inversionistas de bienes raíces, puede ser una herramienta importante al momento de construir un portafolio de propiedades de alquiler.


¿Qué es DSCR?

De manera sencilla, el DSCR compara los ingresos calificables de la propiedad con el servicio de la deuda.

DSCR = Ingreso calificable de la propiedad ÷ Servicio de la deuda

Por ejemplo, imagina que una propiedad genera $3,000 al mes en ingresos calificables y el pago mensual de deuda utilizado en el cálculo es de $2,500.

$3,000 ÷ $2,500 = 1.20 DSCR

Un ratio de 1.20 significa que los ingresos calificables de la propiedad son 1.20 veces el servicio de la deuda.

Los requisitos y la forma exacta de calcular el DSCR pueden variar según el lender y el programa, por lo que siempre se deben revisar las guidelines específicas del préstamo.


¿Por qué es importante el DSCR?

En una calificación hipotecaria tradicional, el lender suele enfocarse bastante en los ingresos personales y en el perfil financiero general del borrower.

En un investment loan basado en DSCR, la capacidad de la propiedad para generar ingresos puede tener un papel mucho más importante en la calificación.

Esto puede ser especialmente útil para inversionistas de bienes raíces que tienen negocios, son self-employed o quieren continuar adquiriendo propiedades de alquiler.

En lugar de preguntar solamente:

“¿Cuánto dinero gana el borrower?”

El lender también puede preguntar:

“¿Esta propiedad genera suficientes ingresos para cubrir la deuda?”

Un ejemplo sencillo

Imagina que un inversionista quiere comprar una propiedad de alquiler por $300,000.

Después de revisar el ingreso de alquiler esperado y el financiamiento propuesto, el lender determina:

Ingreso calificable: $2,800 al mes

Servicio de la deuda: $2,500 al mes

El DSCR sería:

$2,800 ÷ $2,500 = 1.12

Esto significa que el ingreso calificable de la propiedad cubre el 112% del servicio de la deuda.

Que un DSCR de 1.12 sea aceptable dependerá del lender y del programa específico. Diferentes programas pueden tener diferentes requisitos mínimos de DSCR, pricing, LTV y otras condiciones.


¿Quién podría considerar un DSCR loan?

Los DSCR loans generalmente están diseñados para investment properties, no para propiedades que serán la residencia principal del borrower.

Pueden ser una opción para inversionistas que quieren comprar propiedades de alquiler y prefieren un proceso de calificación en el que los ingresos de la propiedad tengan un papel importante.

Sin embargo, DSCR no significa que el lender ignore todo lo demás.

El lender puede revisar factores como:

  • Credit

  • Down payment

  • Property type

  • Loan-to-value ratio

  • Reserves

  • Rental income

  • Property condition

  • Loan purpose

Los requisitos específicos dependen del lender y del programa.

¿Cuáles son sus ventajas?

Una posible ventaja es que los ingresos personales del inversionista pueden tener un papel diferente al que tendrían en una calificación hipotecaria tradicional.

También puede ser útil para inversionistas que quieren enfocarse en el potencial de cash flow de la propiedad en lugar de depender completamente de sus ingresos laborales.

Para alguien que está construyendo un portafolio de rental properties, puede representar otra alternativa de financiamiento.

¿Qué deben tener en cuenta los inversionistas?

Un DSCR loan no es automáticamente mejor que un mortgage tradicional.

Dependiendo del programa, el inversionista puede encontrar diferentes tasas de interés, fees, requisitos de down payment, límites de LTV, requisitos de reservas y otras guidelines.

Y hay algo muy importante:

Que una propiedad califique para un DSCR loan no significa necesariamente que sea una buena inversión.

El inversionista todavía debe analizar el alquiler esperado, gastos, vacancy, mantenimiento, taxes, insurance, costos de financiamiento y el rendimiento general de la propiedad.


EN RESUMEN

El DSCR busca responder una pregunta importante:

¿Los ingresos calificables de la propiedad pueden cubrir su deuda?

Para los inversionistas de bienes raíces, entender el DSCR puede abrir la puerta a estrategias de financiamiento diferentes a una calificación hipotecaria tradicional.

Pero antes de comprar una investment property, no te enfoques solamente en si puedes obtener el préstamo.

Asegúrate de que los números tengan sentido como inversión.
