DSCR Loans in Miami

A DSCR loan is an investment-property mortgage that qualifies you on the property’s rental income divided by its monthly payment (the debt service coverage ratio).

Investor

Fix and Flip Loans in Miami

A fix and flip loan is short-term (usually 12–18 months), interest-only financing that covers most of a distressed property’s purchase price and up to 100% of renovation costs, repaid when you sell or refinance.

Investor

DSCR Cash-Out Refinance in Miami

A DSCR cash-out refinance replaces the loan on a rental with a larger one, sized to the property’s value and qualified on its rent, and pays you the difference in cash.

Short-Term Rental (Airbnb) DSCR Loans in Miami

A short-term rental DSCR loan qualifies a vacation rental on its nightly-rental income, using 12 months of booking history or a third-party projection such as AirDNA, instead of a long-term lease.

Why borrowers look at Miami

Miami is a global gateway city where Latin American capital, finance, tech and tourism all collide. Brickell and Downtown are stacked with luxury condo towers that draw international buyers and investors chasing rental yield and appreciation. Wynwood and Little Havana mix art-driven lofts, older bungalows and new mixed-use projects, while Coconut Grove and Coral Way offer leafy single-family streets with historic character. The housing stock swings from high-rise condos with HOA dues that can rival the mortgage to mid-century ranch homes. Buyers come for job growth in finance and healthcare, investors for year-round rental demand. Underwriting condos here means scrutinizing budgets, reserves and insurance-driven assessments, not just the price.

Homeowners insurance: Miami sits in a high wind and flood exposure zone, and insurance costs are among the steepest in the state. Condo buyers face an extra layer of risk: master policies, reserve funding and post-Surfside safety rules directly affect both insurability and loan approval. Getting an insurance quote early is essential here.

Before you buy or refinance in Miami

  • Pull the Miami-Dade County property tax bill early; it is part of every payment and DSCR calculation.
  • Get an insurance quote before you lock a price, including wind and flood.
  • For rentals, check rent comps and any local rental registration or short-term rental rules in Miami.
  • Florida charges documentary stamp tax on new mortgage notes (35¢ per $100) and a 0.2% nonrecurring intangible tax on mortgages, both paid at closing. Condo projects face extra review after the state’s post-2022 structural-safety reforms, so condo budgets and reserve studies matter to lenders.
