How Much Income Do I Need to Qualify? What are your income requirements?
Borrowers do not need to show any income to qualify for Gold Stone Lending programs. Our loans are structured based on cash flow or value of the property rather than the borrower’s income.

In certain cases, some loan costs can be included in the loan amount.

What is a bridge loan?
A bridge loan is a short-term, usually interest-only, loan. The term is generally 12-18 months, and this loan functions as a means to an end (i.e. a “bridge”). Usually the borrower uses this type of loan to acquire a fix and flip opportunity, or to acquire a property where an end loan product is not currently available in the market
What is DSCR? What does DSCR mean?
DSCR stands for Debt Service Coverage Ratio. This is essentially the ratio of operating expenses (i.e. principal and interest on a mortgage, property taxes, homeowners insurance, flood insurance, and HOA/condo dues) to rental income for a given property (for example, if the expenses on a property are $1000/mo, and the rental income is $1300/mo, the DSCR for this property is 1.30)
