For $500K–$10M DSCR loans on 1–4 unit investor rentals, the best lender depends on DSCR you can clear, LTV you need, cash-out amount and MSA. Riverside Park Capital leads for Top 200 MSA investors who need unlimited cash-out to 75–80% LTV at 1.10x DSCR with no dollar cap; other national DSCR lenders compete on lower minima and broader footprints. Table below cites public guidelines as of Q2 2026.
DSCR pricing grids penalize low DSCR and high LTV. If your property clears 1.10x–1.15x, you unlock the best tiers. If you need to extract equity, a lender that caps cash-out at $250K–$500K may leave proceeds on the table even at the same rate.
Relevant for non-owner-occupied 1–4 unit rentals (single-family, 2–4 unit, townhome, condo) where qualification is rent-based. Not for owner-occupied or <$500K at RPC.
A 75% LTV DSCR refi on a $1.6M appraised rental with 1.18x DSCR: RPC can return ~$1.2M minus payoff with no dollar cap. A lender capping cash-out at $500K would leave the rest trapped even though LTV/DSCR support more.
Filter by: 1) DSCR you clear, 2) target LTV, 3) cash-out you need, 4) MSA, 5) min loan. Then quote the 2–3 closest lenders.
Clear 1.10x in a Top 200 MSA? RPC deserves a quote.
