Real Estate Investment Financing in Arkansas
Debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) loans allow real estate investors to qualify for a mortgage based on a property’s cash flow rather than personal income. Instead of reviewing tax returns or pay stubs, we prioritize a property’s DSCR — which measures its income versus its debt obligations — to make a lending decision. This offers a flexible mortgage solution for real estate investors looking to build or expand their portfolio.
DSCR loans can be used to purchase or refinance long-term and short-term rental properties, with financing available for many different property types and no limit on the number of properties financed. Access up to $20 million in financing while enjoying a streamlined underwriting process with no income or employment verification.

Frequently Asked Questions
The credit score requirement for Arkansas DSCR business purpose property loans varies by lender. At Griffin Funding, you may qualify for a DSCR loan with a credit score as low as 620.
Generally, you’ll need between 20-25% of the purchase price. For instance, if you purchase a rental property worth $500,000, you can expect to put down between $100,000 to $150,000. The specific down payment requirements vary by lender and other factors, such as your DSCR, rental income, and credit score.
The DSCR will have a significant influence on your down payment, interest rate, and mortgage terms. However, it may be well worth it to make a higher down payment when possible because it can help lower your loan amount and the amount you’ll pay over the life of the loan.
In addition, making a larger down payment may get you better interest rates because it shows lenders the opportunity is less of a risk. On the other hand, smaller down payments mean larger loan amounts and potentially higher interest rates, which means paying more monthly and over the life of the loan.
DSCR loans are unique because they don’t require the traditional documentation of an investment property loan. Still, the lender’s duties are the same — they must ensure the borrower’s ability to repay the loan, but with a DSCR loan, they use the debt service coverage ratio instead of tax returns, pay stubs, or other personal income documentation.
The documents required for DSCR business loans in Arkansas include the following:
- Property financial statements: Lenders must determine whether the property’s rental income can repay the debt. They’ll need to see financial statements to get a complete picture of a property’s income and expenses. Specific documents might include profit and loss ( P&L) statements and lease agreements. However, most of the time a lease agreement or an appraisal covering the comparable rents will suffice.
- Appraisal: Lenders will appraise the property to determine its current market value.
