Methodology
Every Monday we restate broker-facing rate sheets from our active DSCR lender network, strip per-lender margin and state adjusters, and publish the blended median for a clean scenario: LLC-vested, 1–4 unit rental, ~1 point buydown, 5-year step-down prepay, 30–60 day lock. Individual lender quotes will be ±0.25% of these tables.
