Why Real Estate Investors Choose Upright Lending for DSCR Loans

Property First Underwriting

DSCR Loans rely primarily on asset performance rather than personal income. Upright Lending structures loans around market rents, in place leases, and DSCR requirements from the DSCR Guidelines.

Aligned Incentives that Support Long Term Success

Our internal model rewards long term portfolio performance, not short term volume. This creates stronger communication and better outcomes for rental investors.

A Dedicated Team, Not a Call Center

Upright Lending determined approval based upon market rents, in-place leases, and property expenses.
