OfferMarket has experience working with hundreds of Utahns that make living through real estate investing. Their property portfolios span from the Wasatch Front to Washington County to the Great Basin and touch every property class out there. OfferMarket's extensive experience underwriting Utah DSCR loans allows us to foresee unique circumstance that may arise in the process of issuing loans in the state.

Unique features of underwriting Utah DSCR Loans

For example, during underwriting of a DSCR loan in the name of an LLC, a document certifying that the LLC is current with all state taxes is necessary. In many states this document is called "Certificate of Legal Existence" or "Certificate of Status". However Utah, does not provide those documents and instead provides a documents called "Certificate of Good Standing". We are comfortable guiding Utahns that work with us to providing this document in lieu of "Certificate of Legal Existence". Having worked on enough Utah DSCR loans we are aware of small idiosyncratic issues such as this that may arise and our staff is experienced in navigating them to ensure a smooth and speedy process to bring any lending situations to a favorable resolution.

Favorable environment for Utah DSCR Loans

Utah has a favorable environment to allow Utahn real estate investors to thrive for several reasons. Thriving local economy enabled job and income growth of the residents, growing population increases demand for housing and reasonable free-market promoting legislature enables real estate investors to continue to profitably invest in local communities. For example, Utah does not have rent control and has state law provisions that ban localities from creating their own rent control laws, thus promoting a healthy and organic way for real estate investors to meet real estate needs of local markets without interference of local governments that may distort this balance.

Capital provider demand for Utah DSCR Loans

Given the recent rise in home prices in most Utah housing markets, we are seeing market rents that produce low DSCR at target loan amount (i.e. 80% LTV on purchase, 75% LTV on cash out refi). If maximizing your loan amount is a priority, we can structure your DSCR loan with a 5 or 10 year interest only period which increases cash flow to support a higher loan amount. We are also helping our clients obtain the most competitive landlord insurance to lower premium and boost DSCR.

DSCR Loan vs Utah Banks

Utah banks, like most banks across the country, are not lending for 1-4 unit residential rental properties. Commercial mortgages from banks, if available, are not a sure thing and can take a lot of time given extremely strict and opaque underwriting guidelines which includes income verification (W2, tax returns) and loan committee scrutiny. On the other hand Utah DSCR loans do not face the same requirements to come to completion. OfferMarket's transparent quoting engine will provide a Utahn real estate investor with a DSCR quote in under 1 minute without a credit pull or necessity to provide us with any personal information such as an email or phone.

Even if you have a stable W2 income and strong tax returns, it's difficult to justify the additional processing legwork and extended timeline. In contrast Utah DSCR loans do not require any W-2 verification and are a perfect with for experienced real estate investors that make a living through managing their portfolios full time.
