| Question | LendingStreet | Typical national online DSCR lender | Typical local hard money lender |
|---|---|---|---|
| Built for long-term rental refinances | Yes | Usually | No; built for short-term loans |

| Cash-out up to 75% LTV | Yes | Varies by program | Varies |

Long-term rentals cluster in Pine Hills, Azalea Park, Conway, College Park, Winter Garden, Ocoee, Apopka and Sanford, where block homes and townhomes lease to the region's large hospitality, healthcare and logistics workforce.
Newer master-planned areas such as Horizon West and Lake Nona have rising values, but many homes there carry both HOA dues and CDD assessments.
Vacation homes in resort-zoned communities in Osceola County and nearby Polk County lease by the night, which is a different underwriting path.
Orlando's long-term rental demand comes from a very large hospitality and tourism workforce, plus fast-growing healthcare, logistics and technology employers. That depth helps rents hold up, but the newest communities also carry the highest add-on assessments, so look closely at every line on the tax bill.
Community Development District assessments show up on the property tax bill in many newer Orlando communities, and they can be large. Add them, plus HOA dues, to the payment before you decide how much cash to take.
As elsewhere in Florida, a new mortgage carries documentary stamp tax and intangible tax. Rentals do not get the homestead exemption, so use your own bill. Confirm figures with your title company.
The City of Orlando's home sharing rules generally require the host to live on site, which rules out most whole-home nightly rentals inside city limits. Investors who want nightly income tend to buy in resort-zoned communities in Osceola and Polk counties where vacation rentals are allowed. Confirm the zoning and any county registration before relying on that income.
Central Florida is inland, but hurricanes still bring wind and heavy rain, and some areas near lakes and wetlands are in flood zones. Insurers look at roof age closely.
This example is illustrative and not a quote. An investor owns a townhome in Horizon West, leased long-term, with the tax figure below including the CDD assessment. The current loan balance is $230,000, the property appraises at $400,000 and the rent is $2,850 a month. Taxes are about $520 a month and insurance about $170, plus $120 a month for HOA dues.
At 75% LTV the new loan is $300,000. After the $230,000 payoff, that leaves about $70,000 before closing costs. Estimated principal and interest is about $2,098, so the full monthly payment is about $2,908 and the DSCR is about 0.98x.
At 70% LTV the loan is $280,000, cash out is about $50,000, the payment drops to about $2,768 and the DSCR rises to about 1.03x. The CDD and HOA lines are what squeeze this file. At 75% the ratio falls just short of 1.0x, so the investor either uses a sub-1.0 DSCR program or takes a bit less cash at 70% and clears the standard minimum.
| Item | 75% LTV cash-out | 70% LTV cash-out |
|---|---|---|
| Appraised value | $400,000 | $400,000 |
| New loan amount | $300,000 | $280,000 |
| Existing loan paid off | $230,000 | $230,000 |
| Cash out before closing costs | $70,000 | $50,000 |
| Estimated principal and interest | $2,098 | $1,958 |
| Property taxes | $520 | $520 |
| Insurance | $170 | $170 |
| HOA dues | $120 | $120 |
| Total monthly payment | $2,908 | $2,768 |
| DSCR at $2,850 rent | About 0.98x | About 1.03x |
