What is a DSCR loan?

A DSCR loan — short for Debt Service Coverage Ratio — is an investor mortgage that qualifies off the property's rental income rather than the borrower's personal income or debt-to-income ratio. If the property's rent covers the total housing payment (principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and HOA), the loan qualifies. Self-employed investors, LLC-title borrowers, and anyone with complex tax returns can build a rental portfolio without W-2 gymnastics.

Delaware market

Why Delaware works for investor lending.

Delaware is a compact but dense investor market. Wilmington banking + Philly-metro commuter demand drives premium rentals. Rehoboth Beach and the Sussex County coast add STR opportunity. Consistent rental demand across the state.

Banking + business anchor

Wilmington hosts a deep banking, financial services, and corporate legal ecosystem (Delaware's business-friendly corporate law drives concentration of Chancery Court cases and Fortune 500 registrations).

Coastal STR opportunity

Rehoboth Beach, Lewes, Bethany Beach, and the Sussex County coastal corridor host active short-term rental markets. Our DSCR program supports STR income where zoning permits.

Philadelphia adjacencies

Northern Delaware is effectively a Philadelphia commuter belt. Rental demand from Philly-metro workers stays consistent across Wilmington and its suburbs.
