Current rates: This is an archived May 2026 market note. For live tables and the latest commentary, see DSCR loan rates today.

In May 2026, DSCR loan rates for clean LLC-vested files clustered roughly in the 6.25%–7.875% band, with top-tier 720 FICO / 75% LTV / 1.10 DSCR quotes often in the 6.75%–7.25% range on a 30-year fixed.

Where rates were in May 2026

Product 720 FICO / 75% LTV / 1.10 DSCR (May snapshot)
30-yr fixed ~7.00%
5/1 ARM ~6.625%
7/1 ARM ~6.75%
10-yr IO / 30-yr term ~7.25%

These were note-rate baselines with a typical ~1-point buydown assumption on a clean LLC-vested scenario — not lockable quotes.

What was driving May pricing

10-year Treasury / MBS spreads: Non-QM DSCR spreads to Treasuries had compressed versus 2024 peaks, which was the main reason absolute DSCR rates improved even when Fed Funds sat in a holding pattern.

LLPA stack still mattered: Sub-680 FICO, 80% LTV, no-ratio, and STR/non-warrantable overlays continued to add meaningful rate or LTV haircuts on top of the headline.
