Real scenarios, written up in full.
This is one of the hardest scenarios to place, because it fails two separate lender screens at once. At five units the property leaves residential lending and becomes commercial multifamily, which narrows the field sharply and usually means underwriting on net operating income rather than gross rent. Layering short-term rental income on top narrows it further, because many commercial multifamily lenders will not underwrite nightly revenue at all.
Capital sources that write it fall into two groups. Some extend DSCR-style products above four units, underwriting gross short-term revenue the way they would a single-family STR. Others treat it as commercial and want twelve months of operating history, a normalized expense load including management and reserves, and a larger equity position. Where there is no operating history, a minority will underwrite projected revenue from comparable listings, typically with a haircut and at reduced leverage.
The practical consequence is that a decline on this scenario says almost nothing about the deal. Small mixed-use buildings with nightly rentals, converted multifamily in resort markets and 5-to-8 unit properties running a mix of long and short-term tenancies are exactly the files that get turned away by a lender with one credit box and placed comfortably by a lender with thirty.
Six-unit building, mixed tenancy. Four units on annual leases at $1,250 each, two operated nightly averaging $2,400 a month.
Gross monthly revenue $9,800. At a $6,900 monthly payment including taxes, insurance and reserves, gross DSCR is roughly 1.42.
Underwritten commercially on normalized NOI — after management, maintenance, vacancy and reserves — the same building might carry a 1.15 ratio.
Both figures are defensible. Which one the lender uses determines the loan amount, and that is the single question worth asking before you go under contract.
Most national DSCR lenders operate one credit box. The scenarios that fall outside it are consistent: a ratio below 1.0, no ratio at all, credit under 660, condotels and non-warrantable condominiums, 5-to-8 unit buildings, short-term rentals with no operating history, rural property, mixed-use, and first-time investors with no landlord record.
Each of those is written by some capital source and declined by others. Placing across more than 30 sources means the question is not whether your scenario fits a box, but which box it fits. That is also why a decline from one lender is worth treating as information about that lender rather than a verdict on the property.
