Current super-jumbo DSCR guidelines, updated from one source.
One source feeds every super jumbo DSCR page Lendmire publishes; the North Conway, NH figures below refresh when the program sheet is updated.
Program ceiling
This is the balance the program can reach on a strong file; the leverage cell at any size depends on the credit tier and the transaction.
Top purchase leverage
At the first rung of the ladder, purchase and rate-and-term leverage reach this ceiling; above it the ladder steps down.
Full-leverage coverage floor
Rent divided by the full payment must reach this floor for full leverage; coverage between the reduced-band floor and this floor (both in the snapshot line under the ladder table) is available at reduced leverage.
Credit floor
The credit floor for the ladder’s lower bands; above the super-jumbo overlay line (the balance is in the snapshot line under the ladder table) a higher floor applies, and each band’s best leverage cell carries the credit requirement the ladder table shows.
Cash-out leverage steps down with loan size and stops at this balance; larger requests are purchase or rate-and-term only.
Above this balance every request is reviewed before submission, at reduced leverage.
An interest-only period is available through select programs, with coverage measured on the interest-only payment.
| Loan size | Purchase & rate-and-term | Cash-out | Credit at that leverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| $150,000 – $1M | 80% | 75% | 660+ |
| $1M – $1.5M | 75% | 70% | 700+ |
| $1.5M – $2M | 75% | 60% | 720+ |
| $2M – $3M | 75% | 60% | 720+ |
| $3M – $4M | 65% | Not available | 700+ |
| $4M – $6M | 60% · case by case | Not available | 700+ |
| $6M – $10M | 60% · case by case | Not available | 700+ |
Current super-jumbo DSCR snapshot · updated September 26, 2026 · coverage from 0.75 to 0.99 and no-ratio files to $2M at reduced leverage · super-jumbo overlays (credit floor 700+) above $3M · two appraisals above $2M · short-term rental income to $2M.
The figures on this page are program parameters, not offers: leverage is a matrix of loan size and credit tier, cash-out stops at its own ceiling, requests above the review line are considered case by case, and every file is underwritten individually. No lender rate, payment, fee, or lender is stated or implied; the calculator below runs on a public benchmark rate, not a quote. Lendmire brokers these loans through its wholesale network and is never the lender.
What a super-jumbo DSCR loan is — and how the ladder decides it.
For North Conway, NH investors, the program is best understood as a table rather than a number: each loan-size band has its own leverage and credit cells, a review line divides large from very large, and cash-out stops before the top.

The rent qualifies the loan, not the owner
Rent-to-payment coverage decides the loan in North Conway: the lease or the market rent on one side, the full payment on the other. The owner’s tax returns are not requested for the ratio.
Leverage is a ladder, not a number
The ladder is the program: as a North Conway, NH balance climbs from one band to the next, leverage steps down and the credit required for the top cell is set band by band — the ladder table shows it. Planning the equity around the band is the first structural decision.
Credit and reserves tighten above the overlay line
Above the overlay line, a North Conway file carries a stricter credit floor, a clean recent housing history, and longer seasoning after a credit event. Reserves are months of the full payment, so a larger payment means larger reserves.
The review line and the cash-out ceiling
Above the cash-out ceiling, a North Conway refinance cannot take cash; above the review line, any request is reviewed before it is submitted. Both lines are shown in the snapshot and respected by the calculator.
Enter a price, an equity percentage, a credit tier, and the rent; the calculator reads the leverage cell for that loan size, builds the full payment, and compares the ratio with the floor.
Where North Conway’s high-value rental stock sits — and how a lender reads it.
The stock of high-value homes in North Conway, NH, the rents at the top of the market, and household income together sketch the market a high-balance file is underwritten in.
These are context figures, not underwriting inputs. In high-value markets, rent grows more slowly than value, so the rent-to-value ratio compresses as the price climbs; the leverage ladder exists to absorb that compression, and equity does the rest.
Data sources: U.S. Census Bureau — ACS 5-Year (2024) housing and population estimates, including owner-occupied home values by bracket and gross rent by bracket.
Distinct North Conway submarkets, distinct appraisal stories.
Where a North Conway property sits changes what the appraisal has to prove and what the rent has to cover; the submarkets below are the map most high-balance files are read against.
Newer resort developments
Where North Conway is adding resort neighborhoods, the file is read on valuation support first; a thin sales record inside the development narrows the leverage cell. Census estimates place about 11% of North Conway’s owner-occupied homes at a value of one million dollars or more — roughly 59 homes.
View estates on acreage
View estates outside North Conway sell privacy and horizon, and their files answer acreage, access, and utility questions before the rent is even discussed; the program caps acreage by loan band. North Conway counts a population near 2.0K.
Luxury cabins and lodges
Luxury cabins and lodge-style homes around North Conway can carry large balances; the appraisal has to find comparable sales of similar log or timber construction, which are often scarce. Median gross rent in North Conway sits near $966 a month, the floor the top of the market rises from.
Golf and club communities
Club communities in North Conway add dues and rental restrictions to the file; both sit inside the coverage math and the eligibility review before the leverage cell is confirmed. The median owner-occupied home value in North Conway runs near $435,000 on the latest Census estimate.
Slopeside and resort residences
At the base areas of North Conway, values run highest and the file leans on the association package — rental programs, reserves, how the building operates in the quiet months. Median household income in North Conway sits near $71,198, the demand side of the rents a high-value rental competes for.
In-town estates
In-town estates in North Conway draw year-round tenants rather than seasonal ones, which smooths the rent a lender measures and steadies the coverage ratio. Roughly 59 owner-occupied homes in North Conway are valued at two million dollars or more on the latest estimate, the stock a super jumbo file is most often written against.
None of this is a valuation or a rent analysis; it is the backdrop a North Conway file is read against before the appraisals and the lease decide the numbers.
Four ways North Conway investors put super-jumbo DSCR financing to work.
How North Conway investors put the program to work depends on the balance, the rent, and the goal; these four paths cover most files.
Scale a portfolio of high-value rentals
Investors building a North Conway portfolio use the program property by property: each balance sits on its own rung, and reserves are measured per property.
Take cash out below the cash-out ceiling
An investor consolidating equity from a North Conway property uses the cash-out path where the ladder allows it, knowing the largest balances are structured without cash.
Hold title in an entity
For North Conway investors holding property in an entity, the super jumbo path accommodates the structure, subject to lender program eligibility, while the rent carries the file.
Buy a high-value rental on its rent
A purchase above the standard ceiling in North Conway, NH qualifies on the property’s income; the equity is sized to the band, and the appraisal work scales with the price.
Estimate a North Conway high-value rental’s coverage at its loan size, before requesting a quote.
This tool applies the ladder to a North Conway scenario: the loan size and credit tier select a leverage cell, the payment is built from your taxes, insurance, dues, and rate assumption, and the rent is measured against it. The benchmark rate is a weekly Freddie Mac average, editable and never a quote.
North Conway super jumbo DSCR calculator
Starting assumptions reflect North Conway’s home values and rents; change any field and the ladder is re-read.
Editable benchmark: 7.28% as of October 1, 2026 · Freddie Mac 30-year average via FRED®. This is not a DSCR loan quote.
Illustrative starting assumptions: a $2,500,000 price set above North Conway’s median owner-occupied home value to reach the super jumbo band, an equity position sized to the ladder, and a long-term rent in line with luxury rent-to-value (U.S. Census Bureau). Taxes and insurance are editable state-level assumptions.
Illustrative estimate only — not a Loan Estimate, approval, quote, or commitment to lend. Leverage is read from the current program matrix for the loan size and credit tier entered; the appraisal, the lease or market rent, reserves, and full underwriting decide the actual figures. Requests above the review line are considered case by case, purchase or rate-and-term only. The rate field is an editable Freddie Mac thirty-year benchmark; it is not a DSCR loan quote.
Same property, three very different structures.
Super jumbo DSCR is one of three structures a North Conway investor might use on the same property; each reads income differently and stops at a different balance.
Rent-qualified at scale, standard DSCR, or the owner’s income.
Qualifies on the property’s rent above the standard DSCR ceiling, with leverage read from a loan-size and credit-tier matrix, a review line for the largest balances, and a cash-out ceiling below the top.
Qualifies on the same rent-to-payment math but stops at the standard program ceiling; the lower bands of the super jumbo ladder overlap it, with the standard program often carrying the better cell there. Inside the standard ceiling, Lendmire arranges DSCR loans in North Conway.
Deposit-qualified rather than rent-qualified: a bank statement loan puts the owner’s business income at the center, which suits an owner-used home more than a leased rental.
If the rent covers the payment and the balance is above the standard ceiling, super jumbo DSCR is the structure; if it is inside the ceiling, standard DSCR; if the owner will live there, a bank statement loan.
What to prepare for a North Conway scenario review.
What a high-balance scenario review usually starts with.
This is a general preparation guide, not a universal checklist. The selected lender may request additional information based on the loan size, the property, the appraisals, the lease or market rent, the entity, and reserves. Nothing here is legal or tax advice.
Local details that can change the loan.
The larger the balance, the more the details matter. In North Conway, NH, these are the ones that most often change a file’s shape.
Use these checks to keep the North Conway file clean and fundable.
Three checks keep a North Conway high-balance file on track: the rung comes first, and the checklist below walks through all three for this market.
- Know the rung: confirm the band and the credit tier the best cell requires.
- Count the reserves: plan a longer requirement for a first-time investor.
- Count the appraisals: expect two appraisals above the line and plan for the lower value.
The loan-size band decides the leverage
Leverage on a North Conway high-balance file is not negotiated; it is read from the band. The work is choosing the balance and the equity so the file lands on the rung that fits.
Reserves scale with the payment
Verified liquid reserves are counted in months of the North Conway property’s full payment; plan for the payment, not the price.
Two appraisals above the line
Above the second-appraisal line, a North Conway file carries two appraisals, and the lower value governs; on unique high-value property the comparables are thin, so the review takes longer and the value can land below the contract.
Case-by-case review above the line
Above the review line, a North Conway request is discussed with the lender before it is submitted, structured as purchase or rate-and-term at the top band’s reduced leverage, and decided on its own facts.
Entity vesting and guarantors
Title in an LLC or corporation is accommodated on a North Conway file, subject to lender program eligibility; the guarantors’ credit selects the leverage cell, and layered entities are not accepted.
From a North Conway rent roll to a funded high-balance loan.
The process for a North Conway, NH super jumbo DSCR loan is deliberate, because the details at this size are expensive to discover late.
Place the balance
Every North Conway file starts with the band. The equity, the transaction type, and the interest-only question are settled around it.
Package the file
The file is built once, correctly: rent documentation, credit, reserves, entity, property — everything the North Conway, NH lender will read, in the order they read it.
Appraise and review
One or two appraisals, depending on the balance, with a market rent analysis; above the review line the request is discussed with the lender before it is submitted.
Close and fund
Final underwriting reads the whole North Conway, NH file against the matrix, and the loan funds at the leverage the band and the credit tier opened.
A brokerage built around investors who qualify on rent.
A super jumbo DSCR file rewards preparation, and preparation is what a brokerage built for investors provides.
Ladders, not guesses
The band, the cell, the overlays, and the review line are known at the start of a North Conway, NH file, not discovered in underwriting.
The right wholesale program
High-balance DSCR ladders differ by program; Lendmire places a North Conway, NH file where its rent, its credit tier, and its property read best.
Structured for the review
The details that sink high-balance files late are settled early on a North Conway file, which is what keeps the closing on the terms the ladder allowed.

North Conway super jumbo DSCR loan FAQs
General answers for North Conway investors weighing a super jumbo DSCR loan; the appraisals, the rent, and underwriting decide every actual figure.
How is leverage decided on a super jumbo DSCR loan in North Conway?
From a matrix: the balance places the file in a loan-size band, the credit tier selects a cell inside it, and that cell is the leverage. The smallest band carries the highest leverage; leverage steps down as the balance climbs. The ladder table on this page shows the best cell in each band.
Can I take cash out of a high-value North Conway rental with a super jumbo DSCR loan?
Yes, inside the cash-out ladder. The ceiling sits below the program’s top balance, proceeds are limited above a certain leverage, and at the largest balances cash-out proceeds may not count toward reserves.
What sets the timeline on a super jumbo DSCR loan?
It depends on the balance: one appraisal or two, a matrix cell or a case-by-case review. Preparation is what keeps a North Conway, NH file moving.
How is this different from a standard DSCR loan?
The structure is identical; the ladder is not. Inside the standard ceiling the standard program often carries the better cell; above it, the super jumbo path is the only rent-qualified one.
What credit score does a super jumbo DSCR loan require?
It depends on the balance and the leverage requested. The floor in the snapshot applies at the bottom of the ladder; above the overlay line a higher floor applies, each band’s best cell carries the credit the table shows, and the overlays add a clean recent housing history.
Does short-term rental income count on a super jumbo DSCR loan?
Within its cap. A North Conway, NH vacation rental above the short-term rental cap is underwritten on the appraisal’s long-term rent instead of bookings.
Is interest-only available on a super jumbo DSCR loan?
Through select programs, yes: an interest-only period at its own leverage cap, with coverage measured on the interest-only payment. Alongside a larger down payment, it is one of the two common ways a high-value North Conway file brings its ratio up to the floor.
How is the rent documented on a high-balance file?
A lease or the appraisal’s market rent. On very large North Conway balances the rent analysis has to defend a large number, so the appraiser’s comparables matter as much as the lease.
What happens above the case-by-case review line?
It is reviewed case by case. The top band exists for very large North Conway, NH balances that the matrix cannot price mechanically; the review decides, and the structure is purchase or rate-and-term only.
Are foreign nationals eligible?
Yes, on a dedicated tier with its own cap, leverage, and reserves; the file qualifies on the rent like any other, and the no-ratio path is not available on it.
From estate to funded loan — start the review.
A first read of a North Conway high-balance scenario takes a few minutes and commits you to nothing; the ladder, the appraisals, and the review line are explained before anything is ordered.
