How to Improve Your Rental Loan Terms

Lower Rate Is Not the Only Lever

Strong borrowers focus on profile strength, not just rate shopping.

Key drivers of better terms include:

• Stronger liquidity reserves
• Higher DSCR
• Lower leverage
• Clean entity documentation
• Clear exit strategy

Lenders price risk. When risk is clearly managed, terms improve.

Strategic positioning increases lender confidence.
