## What is a mortgagee clause?

<br>

A mortgagee clause typically is a provision included in a property insurance policy protecting the mortgagee (lender) from financial loss in the event mortgaged property is damaged -- physical or otherwise.  Put another way, a mortgage clause is insurance coverage between the lender and property insurance company that protects the lender and their interest in the property. Most commonly this protects lenders downside when there is physical damage done to the property and it was not initially reflected in the valuation of the property. This clause is often added to homeowners insurance policy (and increases its costs for the homeowner) and is required by mortgage lender to be able to extend a mortgage loan. 

<br>

In other words, if the property suffers damage, the insurer agrees to financially compensate the mortgagee for their portion of the loss. This is a risk reducing mechanism that enables a vibrant and hyper active lending system which makes it easier for borrower to get a loan, for mortgage originators to function and underwrite such loans and for mortgage investors to repurchase packaged loans in the secondary markets. More on these mechanics below...

<br>

## Protection for the lender helps the lending system function

<br> 

The main purpose of the clause is to provide protection to the mortgage lender so their returns on extending a loan for the property is protected in case of substantial damaged or even destroyed. This mechanism allows for shifting of risk from mortgage lender to the insurer, so in case of a cataclysmic event the financial burden is split, which allows for mortgage lenders to extend far more loans to the buyers, allowing more families to move into their homes and enjoy benefits of home ownership. Risk is an important consideration for lenders because thats a useful tool for quantifying their exposure to downside financial risk inherent to their business. Shifting this risk or distributing it between parties within the transaction is an important mechanism that allows creation of new, more sophisticated, and robust systems that allow more access to capital at cheaper rates, allowing everyone who are part of the system to thrive. 

<br> 

Without this mechanism, mortgage lenders would need to be much more risk averse and tightening their lending standards. Which would impact buyers ability to purchase homes. Usually this would mean that buyers would have to put more money down to purchase a property, have higher credit scores, buyer lower valued properties, some areas would be underbanked due to higher perceived risk from the lender, or they would required co-guarantors or co-signers, overall making a loan issuance a much harder process for the borrower. 

<br>

## Protection of the clause doesn't just protect the original lender

<br>

The protection granted by the clause doesn't just protect the original mortgage lender. The clause includes [ISAOA]("https://www.offermarket.us/real-estate-glossary/isaoa-atima"), or "It's success and/or assigns" term, sometimes written as "successors and or assigns", which means that the insurance protection extends or grants continuing to any financial institution that may repurchase the mortgage loan from the original loan issuer. This is done because, given how the current mortgage loan industry is structured, most commonly, originator of the loan, the first company that issues doesn't hold it to maturity, for the whole 30 year or 15 year term. Instead they package many such loans together into whats called a vintage and sell them to investors that do hold them for 15 to 30 years in order to collect the coupon payments. 

<br> 

These investors also want to be protected from potential damage to the property under home owners insurance for the duration of the loan, which is often substantial. If this extension under [ISAOA]("https://www.offermarket.us/real-estate-glossary/isaoa-atima") didn't exists, this secondary market would evaporate overnight, and originators (first issuer of the load would have to hold them until maturity), which would cascade into much stricter rules on original issuance due to much higher risk they would bear, ultimately making it significantly harder for buyers to get a loan. 

<br>

The protection of the clause often covers not only originator (original mortgage lender), mortgage investor (buyer of mortgage loan packages from the original lender) but also to any company that also works with already protected party. For example, if there are some subcontractor, rental equipment operators, or vendors working on the property and their equipment gets damaged while they are doing anything for the insured parties (home owner or their lender), the [ATIMA]("https://www.offermarket.us/real-estate-glossary/isaoa-atima") protection kicks in and covers them under the mortgagee clause, leaving the insurance on the hook instead of homeowner or the lender, making them a loss payee instead of the lender or homeowner.

<br>

Once again, this is done to further reduce risk for the lender so the whole lending system can continue issuing loans and make insurers deal with actual, often physical risks of home ownership, while lenders are only exposed to the risks carried by the personal profile of the homeowner, such as their personal ability to pay down the loan for its duration.


## How to add a mortgagee clause

<br>

If you are a [private lender](https://offermarket.us/real-estate-glossary/private-lender) providing a private loan to a real estate buyer (borrower), you can have the borrower contact their property insurer to add a mortgagee clause with you as the mortgagee. Almost all home insurance companies have experience with adding these clauses because any government backed mortgage loan must include such a clause to make it count as a standard loan that can be packaged or securitized into vintage which then can be resold in secondary markets for investors to hold until maturity.

Being headquartered in Maryland, we are very familiar with the Virginia rental property market. In our view, Virginia is positioned as a compelling market for long term home price and rent appreciation. We're fortunate to serve a growing number of wonderful clients in the state and we certainly hope to have the opportunity to be of service to you!

<br>

Here are frequently asked questions from our Virginia clients:

<br>

## What is a DSCR loan?

<br>

A DSCR  loan is simply a mortgage specifically for a rental property where the maximum loan amount is determined by the DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) of the property. DSCR is Rental Income divided by Monthly Mortgage Payment. As your loan amount increases, your monthly mortgage payment increases, and your DSCR decreases. 1.1 is currently the minimum DSCR to qualify for a given loan amount. Use our [DSCR Calculator](https://www.offermarket.us/tools/dscr-calculator) to help you run your numbers, understand DSCR, max loan amount, monthly cash flow, cash to close and cash out for your next deal.

<br>

## Can I cash out refi with no seasoning?

<br>

Yes! OfferMarket is one of the only private lenders with a [cash out refi no seasoning](https://www.offermarket.us/blog/cash-out-refi-no-seasoning) program. Instead of waiting for 6 months to refinance your rental property, you can refi as soon as your renovation is completed and the property is leased. Why should you have to wait to pull cash out of a property and reinvest it into growing your business?

<br>

## Do I qualify for a DSCR loan?

<br>

**Borrowing Entity:** Because our loans are business purpose, we only fund loans to business entities. If title is currently held in your personal name, you would need to transfer it into an LLC or corporation before we can fund.

<br>

**Credit Score:** the minimum credit score is 660. If you have more than one borrower in your borrowing entity, the ownership of each member will determine which credit score we use. If you do not want to use one of the member's credit score, they will need to own less than 50% of the borrowing entity. We use a [tri merge credit report](https://www.offermarket.us/blog/what-is-a-tri-merge-credit-report), which is a hard credit pull that collects your credit report from Experian, Equifax and Transunion, and we take the middle score. So, if your tri merge report is 721, 697, 738, then we will use 721 to determine your loan terms.

<br>

**Background Check:** if you have a clean background report, then you're all set. If you have one or more bankruptcy, felony or misdemeanor on your background report, then we will need you to provide a letter of explanation to determine if you are eligible for funding.

<br>

**Non-Rural:** if your property is [designated as rural](https://www.offermarket.us/blog/rural-designation-search-tools) or the appraiser indicates that your property is rural on their appraisal report, then we may not be able to fund your loan. DSCR loans are meant for properties in highly liquid markets where you can quickly sell the property for market price if need be.

<br>

**Minimum As Is Value:** currently, we require your property to appraise for at least $100,000, and we require your loan amount to be at least $75,000.

<br>

## What is the maximum DSCR loan amount?

<br>

**Purchase:** we can fund up to 80% of the purchase price as long as the property does not appraise for below the purchase price, and the appraisal market rent supports that loan amount.

<br>

**Rate and term refinance:** if you have an existing loan on the property, we can refinance up to 80% LTV as long as you do not receive more than 2% of the loan amount as a cash out at settlement.

<br>

**Cash out refinance:** we can fund up to 75% LTV.

<br>

If you're looking for more higher leverage than the above terms (i.e. higher LTV, lower down payment), we urge you to use caution because legitimate DSCR lenders will rarely offer more leverage than what is offered by OfferMarket.

<br>

## How long does it take to get a DSCR loan?

<br>

Our target for every DSCR loan is to fund in **20 to 25 days**. Here are the most common reasons why funding can be delayed:

<br>

**Appraisal delay:** 3rd party appraisers provide a report due date but may miss that deadline. The appraiser's report may need to be revised and the appraiser may be delayed in providing their revised report.

<br>

**Title work delay:** title companies and closing attorneys may take more time to complete the title work, especially if they are waiting on a lien certificate from a the county or title is clouded. 

<br>

**Borrower delay:** in your OfferMarket Loan File, we provide you with a checklist of items that we need in order for your file to be ready for final review and loan approval. Our processing team will follow up to remind you when there are items that we need you to take care of, and if you do not take action on these items in a timely manner, then your loan will be delayed.

<br>

## Best cities to buy rental properties in Virginia

<br>

We see considerable distortion in the Virginia rental market due to proximity to Washington DC. In the DC metro area and surrounding suburbs, home price increases and limited inventory have discouraged 1 to 4 unit rental investment. The best value for rental property investors in Virginia may well be in smaller markets removed from DC, such as those home to the largest universities in the state.

## Virginia Rental Market Insights

<br>

**Market Rent vs Home Prices:** Given the rapid rise in home values in NOVA, it's not uncommon to see market rent lag. In a high interest rate environment, this will lead to low DSCR which may cause a slight reduction in max loan-to-value (LTV). That means you may need a higher down payment for purchases, and you may cash out less than the max.

<br>

**Property Insurance:** [landlord insurance](https://www.offermarket.us/blog/landlord-insurance) that meets DSCR lender guidelines will require specific coverages that increase your annual premium. Property insurers are also increasing premiums in response to home price inflation, labor price inflation, material price inflation and and storm risks. [OfferMarket Insurance](https://www.offermarket.us/insurance) can help you save hundreds per month on your landlord insurance policy.

## What is Dutch Interest?

<br>

Dutch Interest, also known as [Full Boat interest](https://www.offermarket.us/real-estate-glossary/full-boat), is when a private lender charges interest on the full loan amount, including the construction holdback that has not yet been disbursed to the borrower.

<br>

For example, let's say you have a $100,000 construction loan from a private lender at 10% interest. The lender uses a [draw request process](https://www.offermarket.us/frequently-asked-questions/what-is-the-draw-request-process-for-offermarket-capital-construction-loans) to reimburse you based on progress completing your [scope of work](https://www.offermarket.us/real-estate-glossary/scope-of-work). You may not have received any of your construction loan holdback but you are still paying interest monthly on the full $100,000 portion of your loan. That's $833.33 per month for funds you have not even accessed yet.

<br>

## Do all private lenders charge Dutch Interest?

<br>

When evaluating private lenders, it's important to confirm whether they charge dutch interest or ["non-dutch" or "as disbursed" interest](https://www.offermarket.us/real-estate-glossary/as-disbursed). You can save a lot of money by avoiding dutch interest.

<br>

Unlike most private lenders, OfferMarket charges interest on an as disbursed basis -- you are only charged for the portion of your construction loan that is actually funded to you. We believe this is the most fair arrangement and aligned with [our mission](https://www.offermarket.us/about).
