FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Answers for your
first conversation.

Understand the financing options, our business entity investment property focus, and what to prepare before reaching out.

Does the property already need to be titled in a business entity?

No. The property may be held in your personal name or by the seller when you apply. Title must be vested in an eligible business entity to close the financing. The property may currently be titled in your personal name. To close the financing, title must be vested in an eligible LLC, corporation, LLP, limited partnership, or other approved business entity. The entity does not need to hold title when you apply. State availability, the entity structure, and program requirements remain subject to review.

What financing can I discuss with Peacock Mortgage?

Purchase financing, refinancing, cash-out refinancing, and DSCR financing for business-purpose investment properties held or planned to be held in eligible business entities. Availability and specific terms depend on the state, property, transaction, and applicable program requirements.

What is a DSCR loan?

DSCR stands for debt service coverage ratio. DSCR financing evaluates a property’s rental income in relation to its debt obligations. The exact calculation and qualifying requirements depend on the program.

Can I qualify without personal income documentation?

In some qualifying DSCR transactions, personal income documentation may not be required. The property’s rental income and other program requirements still apply. This does not mean every property qualifies or that all documentation is waived.

Is financing available in every state?

State availability must be confirmed for your specific transaction. Our activities are limited to states and transactions where a lending or mortgage-broker license is not required for the specific role we perform. Selecting a state on the inquiry form identifies the property location; it does not confirm availability.

Does using a business entity automatically mean no license is required?

No. Business entity ownership alone does not establish an exemption. The applicable state requirements, property use, transaction, and specific lending or brokerage activities must be reviewed. Peacock Mortgage limits its activities to circumstances where a license is not required for the role performed.

Is business entity ownership enough to qualify?

The ownership structure is one part of the review. The property’s use, financing purpose, location, and other transaction details also matter. A business entity does not establish loan eligibility or approval.

Can I access equity through a cash-out refinance?

A cash-out refinance may allow an eligible investor to access equity in an investment property. Availability, proceeds, costs, and terms depend on the property value, existing debt, state, and applicable program requirements.

What if my business entity has not been formed yet?

You can apply while the entity is still planned or being formed and while the property is in your personal name. To close the financing, the eligible business entity must be established and title must be vested in it. The entity structure and transaction remain subject to review.

What should I include in my first inquiry?

Your name, preferred contact details, the property’s state, your entity status, and a short description of your financing goal are enough to begin a conversation. Do not include Social Security numbers, bank account details, or sensitive documents in this initial inquiry.

Does an inquiry mean my loan is approved?

No. An inquiry starts a conversation about your financing needs. It is not a loan application, approval, rate lock, or commitment to lend.

Is this website for financing a personal residence?

This website is focused on business-purpose investment properties held or planned to be held in eligible business entities. Describe the intended use accurately so the proposed transaction can be reviewed.
