Government affiliation

Simply Approved Mortgages is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or any other government agency. HUD data reproduced on this site (such as Fair Market Rents, income limits, or census-tract designations) is published by HUD and is used for educational purposes only.

Broker, not a lender

Simply Approved Mortgages LLC (NMLS #2620881) is a licensed mortgage brokerage, not a direct lender. Loans described on this site are originated, underwritten, and funded by third-party wholesale lenders and investors. Wholesale lender names, rate sheets, and credit matrices are not published on this site.

Not an offer of credit

Nothing on this website is a commitment to lend or an offer of credit. All financing is subject to a completed application, credit and property review, appraisal where required, verification of information, lender requirements, and full underwriting. Rates, fees, leverage limits, program guidelines, and product availability change without notice.

Business-purpose lending only

DSCR, HELOC, bridge, fix-and-flip, construction, portfolio, and the other programs described on this site are business-purpose loans secured by non-owner-occupied investment property. They are not available for owner-occupied, primary-residence, second-home, or personal, family, or household purposes, and are generally exempt from TILA/RESPA consumer-mortgage disclosure requirements. Requests submitted through this site are pre-qualification requests, not loan applications under TILA/RESPA, and do not trigger a Loan Estimate.

Borrower obligations

Borrowers remain responsible for property taxes, insurance, HOA dues, maintenance, required reserves, and all other obligations under the loan documents. Failure to meet those obligations may result in default and foreclosure. Investment property carries risk, including vacancy, tenant non-payment, expense increases, and changes in property value.

Calculators, pricing tools, and estimates

Our DSCR pricing tool, HELOC pricing tool, and investor calculators (DSCR, BRRRR, cap rate, cash-on-cash, ARV, and others) are educational, illustrative planning tools based on the inputs you provide and modeled assumptions. Results are not quotes, approvals, appraisals, rent certifications, or commitments to lend, and no figure shown should be relied upon as a promise. Rent, value, and market data drawn from third-party or public sources are estimates, not appraisals or lease verifications.

Rate and pricing displays

Any rate, payment, or pricing scenario shown reflects a specific set of assumptions at a specific point in time and is subject to change without notice. Payment figures shown are principal and interest only and exclude taxes, insurance, HOA dues, and other escrowed or property-level costs. Your actual pricing depends on credit, property, occupancy, lease status, leverage, reserves, entity structure, state, and lender guidelines.

Not tax, legal, or investment advice

Information on this site is educational and general in nature. It is not tax, legal, accounting, or investment advice, and no content here is a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any property or security. Consult a qualified tax advisor, attorney, and licensed professional about your specific situation.

Examples and scenarios

Any deal examples, case studies, or scenarios on this site are illustrative. Your results will depend on your property, market, credit profile, lease terms, and the program you qualify for.

How We Evaluate This Scenario

A DSCR file is judged on the property, not your tax returns: qualifying rent divided by PITIA — principal, interest, taxes, insurance, plus HOA and flood where they apply. Most programs use the lesser of the in-place lease rent and the appraiser's market rent, so a lease signed below market usually caps the ratio no matter how strong the comps look.

Three inputs move the outcome more than anything else: rent support on the appraiser's rent schedule (Form 1007 or 1025), the LTV tier, and the credit tier. Dropping leverage by five points or moving up a FICO band frequently changes pricing more than shopping a different lender does.

Before you write an offer, price taxes and insurance at post-sale levels rather than the seller's current bill. In reassess-on-transfer states and in coastal insurance markets, that single adjustment is the most common reason a deal that penciled at contract fails the ratio at underwriting.

Credit & pre-approval

Why we pull credit for your investor loan pre-approval

Every DSCR / business-purpose loan file needs a tri-merge credit report so we can verify identity, price your rate tier accurately, and confirm reserves and payment history for the underwriter. Cleaner credit typically unlocks a better rate and higher leverage.

Pay for your credit report — SmartPay

Simply Approved Mortgages uses MeridianLink SmartPay to securely collect the credit report fee for your investor pre-approval. Payment goes directly to the credit vendor — not to us — and unlocks your tri-merge report (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion) so your loan officer can price your file.

  • Secure, PCI-compliant checkout hosted by MeridianLink
  • Required for a formal investor pre-approval decision
  • Soft-touch process — your loan officer will guide you through it
