Why does a DSCR lender need an operating agreement for my LLC if its not required by the state?
This question comes up at least half the time in DSCR loans. Often, DSCR lenders will not close unless there is an operating agreement in the borrower’s file. The reason for this is that the borrower on the loan technically is the LLC. The person behind the LLC is the sponsor, or guarantor. The lender wants to know who legally has right to the property through the LLC. One of the jobs of the operating agreement is to outline who owns the LLC and what percentage they own. Typically any sponsor who owns 20-25% or more of the LLC would be required to be a signer on the loan as well. If you need a mortgage and need help with this, we can help you.
What can I do to make sure the appraiser gives me the highest value for my DSCR loan?
This is more of an art than a science but one thing that helps is making sure the property is tidy and organized. Appraisers are human beings and like any sensible person, they would rate a tidy place higher than an untidy one. The next thing that can help is if you already have comps picked out for them. If you can print them out and give them to the appraiser when they come inspect the property, this can go a long way since you’re giving them a hand. Lastly, just be courteous and nice to them. Kindness can go a long way in the end. If you need a mortgage and need help with this, we can help you.

If you’re going to pay down a debt with the intention of raising your credit score, find out what day the bill is due and and make sure to pay what you’re paying before then.
