No W-2. No Tax Returns.
A DSCR loan in Harrisburg qualifies on the property's rent rather than your W-2 or tax returns — business-purpose financing for non-owner-occupied rentals, available to LLCs as standard. What makes Harrisburg its own underwriting problem: Pennsylvania is judicial. That is exactly the kind of variable that one lender's credit box handles badly and thirty handle well, which is how LendingStreet places the file.

The rental stock is pre-war rowhouse stock in the city at low basis, high-basis suburban single-family across the river in Cumberland County, and a state-government tenant base.
Pennsylvania is judicial. Harrisburg city runs at a low basis with a state-government tenant base, while the West Shore suburbs across the Susquehanna run materially higher — same metro, different underwriting. The city and Dauphin County tax rates are high relative to value.
Because the tax line is the swing factor here, run the DSCR with the actual current bill and the reassessed figure after purchase — in Harrisburg they are frequently not the same number, and the lender will use the higher one.
A military and defense tenant base produces reliable rent and predictable turnover on the PCS cycle. Some capital sources treat that as a positive; a few discount it for concentration. Either way it is worth stating in the file.
Standard ranges across our capital sources: $150,000 to $3.5M, up to 80% LTV on purchase and 75% on cash-out, 1.00 minimum ratio with sub-1.0 and no-ratio at select sources, 660 credit standard with 640 and 620 tiers, 30-year fixed, LLC vesting with personal guaranty, 14 to 21 days to close. Full detail and the current rate floor are on the DSCR loan page. The figures on your file depend on the source, the property and the ratio.
The Harrisburg–Carlisle metro — Harrisburg plus Camp Hill, Mechanicsburg, Carlisle, Hershey, Hummelstown and Lemoyne — and the rest of Pennsylvania via the Pennsylvania DSCR page. Investor activity in Harrisburg concentrates in Midtown, Uptown, Shipoke, Allison Hill, Bellevue Park; the loan is underwritten identically anywhere in the metro.
Run the ratio in the DSCR calculator with real Harrisburg tax and insurance figures before you submit — those lines decide more ratios here than the rate does.

It affects the lender's side. A faster recovery timeline widens the pool of sources comfortable writing there; a slower one makes some conservative on leverage. We account for it in placement.
Hershey tourism supports STR demand in Derry Township; the city regulates STRs. Underwrite on long-term rent by default. We underwrite on long-term market rent.
Almost always the tax line. In Harrisburg the lender uses the reassessed bill after purchase, which is often higher than the seller's current bill.
