Most investors don't know their equity is locked until it's too late. If you're waiting the standard 6 months to refinance and pull cash out of your investment property, you're leaving capital on the table — and slowing down your ability to scale.

In this episode, Ryan Marks breaks down exactly how DSCR and Non-QM mortgage strategies let real estate investors access their equity in as little as 0–3 months — no tax returns, no W2s, no waiting on outdated bank guidelines.

Think DSCR loans are one-size-fits-all? Think again. Once you cross into 5-unit and above territory, the rules change — and so do the opportunities.

In this episode, we break down how DSCR financing works for 5+ unit residential properties and why it's a completely different product than the 1-4 unit DSCR loans most investors are familiar with. From how lenders underwrite the deal to how debt coverage ratios are calculated across a larger rent roll, we walk you through what to expect and what lenders are really looking at.

We also share a real-life client example of someone who used a 5+ unit DSCR loan to acquire a property, showing you exactly what the numbers looked like — purchase price, payment options, and how the debt service coverage ratio played out in practice.

Plus, we dive into why interest-only payments can be a game changer for investors working to stabilize a property. When you're filling vacancies, making improvements, and pushing rents to market, that lower monthly obligation gives you breathing room and more cash flow right when you need it most.

Whether you're scaling from a fourplex into your first small apartment building or actively shopping for 5+ unit deals, this episode gives you the financing playbook.
