What you can actually pull out
Borrow against the equity you have already built. The property's own numbers set the advance — which is exactly why this works when your tax return doesn't.

If you are refinancing to hold for income, this grid does not apply. That deal routes to DSCR cash-out, underwritten on net operating income — up to 75% LTV on single-family non-owner-occupied, and 65% on commercial.
The full 100% LTC advance sits on Fix & Flip: 3+ completed projects and a loan of $1,000,000 or less.

Are you an ITIN or foreign-national investor?
You may still qualify for DSCR financing on an investment property. ITIN and foreign-national status describes who the borrower is, not a separate loan type.
For borrower-specific eligibility, requirements, and available programs, see ITIN & foreign national loans.

Why refinance with CR Equity AI
A bank underwrites the borrower. We underwrite the building — which is the one that actually pays the loan back.
01
Underwritten on What It Earns
Hold the property and we run it as DSCR — the loan is sized against the net operating income. Your W-2, or the absence of one, is not the story.
02
Built for the Self-Employed
The borrowers banks handle worst are the ones this loan was designed for. No income verification, no two years of returns.
03
Broad Asset Coverage
Multifamily, mixed-use, retail, industrial, storage, hospitality, and single-family non-owner-occupied. All commercial asset types except RV and trailer parks.
04
Built-In Take-Out Path
Phase 2 stabilization runs up to 36 months with no new application — so the exit is underwritten on day one, not scrambled for at month 23.
Equity out, without selling the asset
Cash-out, rate-and-term, or a bridge takeout — all priced on the property's own performance.

When investors refinance
The situations this loan was built for.
Cash Out for the Next Deal
Turn the equity sitting in one property into the down payment on the next.
Replace an Expensive Loan
Retire hard money or a maturing balloon with a structure that has a real exit.
Self-Employed and Turned Down
The bank could not read your returns. We read the property's income instead.
A Bridge Loan Coming Due
Season the asset and refinance into stabilization rather than fire-selling it.
Stabilized Rental, Better Terms
The lease-up is done and the numbers are proven — price it on that.
Partner Buyout
Refinance to take a partner out without selling the asset underneath you.
DSCR loan FAQ
What DSCR means, how the ratio is calculated, and how cash-out works on a rental you own.
DSCR means debt service coverage ratio: the property's net operating income divided by its annual mortgage payment. At 1.00x the rent covers the debt. At 1.25x it covers it with 25% to spare. We calculate NOI ourselves from rent, taxes, and insurance rather than taking your number. Every quote shows your current DSCR next to the 1.00x and 1.20x marks so you can see where the deal sits.
Yes. On a DSCR loan we do not underwrite your personal income. No tax returns and no W-2s. Soft credit pull only to get terms.
Both. This page is cash-out and rate-and-term on a rental you already own. To buy a rental, including a short-term rental, go to https://crequity.ai/programs/investment-property-purchase-loans.
Yes, as a business-purpose investment. We look at in-place collections and market rent, not a best-case calendar. If the STR story does not hold as a long-term rental either, we will say so.
The floor is 1.00x. Deals with more coverage price better. The quote shows current, 1.00x, and 1.20x so you can see the gap instead of guessing.
DSCR = net operating income divided by annual principal and interest. NOI is (monthly rent × 12) minus yearly taxes, insurance, and HOA. DSCR = net operating income divided by annual principal and interest. NOI is (monthly rent × 12) minus yearly taxes, insurance, and HOA. Use the DSCR calculator at https://crequity.ai/tools/dscr-calculator to illustrate the ratio, then submit the property for real terms in 5 minutes. The program floor is 1.00x.
Up to 80% LTV on 1-4 unit non-owner-occupied purchases, and up to 70% on commercial assets. Cash-out refinance on a hold is up to 75% SFR and 65% commercial. These are maxima. Final LTV depends on the asset and underwriting. Soft credit pull to price it.
Up to 95% on the Bridge track — repositioning the asset or exiting by sale — set by your completed projects and credit score. If you are holding it for income it runs as DSCR cash-out: up to 75% LTV on single-family non-owner-occupied and 65% on commercial assets. Single-family non-owner-occupied Bridge is capped at 90%. 100% LTC is available only on qualified Fix & Flip (3+ completed projects and a loan of $1,000,000 or less).
Yes. Owning it free and clear simply means the whole advance comes back to you as cash.
The property's value, your existing mortgage balance, and the yearly net operating income if you are holding it.
Then it runs as a bridge refinance while you finish the work, and moves into stabilization once the numbers are proven — with no new application.
No. All CR Equity AI loans are business-purpose. We do not lend on an owner-occupied primary residence.
