Hybrid STR Investor Loan Guide Smarter Financing for Airbnb and Vacation Rental Investors Powered by Vision One Mortgage | NMLS #7861

Unlock Better Financing for Your Short-Term Rental Investments Your Airbnb deal shouldn’t die in underwriting. Discover how hybrid STR investor loans help you qualify using real booking revenue — even when traditional DSCR math says “no built for investors who want smarter leverage, lower down payments, and entity-friendly structures.

 

Why Traditional DSCR Loans Fail Great STR Deals

You’ve found the perfect Airbnb or vacation rental. The numbers look great — until underwriting.
Traditional Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) programs often underestimate true STR income because they rely on long-term rental comps and outdated data.

Common roadblocks:

  • Appraisals that miss seasonal and dynamic pricing gains

  • Capped income at “market rent” instead of real booking revenue

  • Lack of 12-month income history for new or newly launched listings

  • Rigid DSCR rules that deny approval even when cash flow is strong

The result: you’re asked to bring 25–30% down — or the deal dies outright.

Hybrid STR loans fix that.


The Smarter Way: Hybrid STR Investor Loans

At Vision One Mortgage, we work with lenders who understand the STR business model.
Hybrid STR loans blend DSCR and conventional underwriting — giving investors more flexibility and fairness.

Program Highlights:

  • Combine borrower income + property income

  • Accept booking data from Airbnb, Vrbo, and management systems

  • No automatic DSCR-based denials

  • Title and sometimes loan in an LLC for asset protection

  • First-time STR investors welcome

  • As little as 15% down in select cases

We don’t treat your Airbnb like a long-term rental — we treat it like the hospitality business it is.
