  “Debt Coverage Ratio
  Debt coverage ratio measures the property’s ability to cover the monthly debt load from the cash generated from the property. Lenders use this formula to determine if the property will generate enough cash to cover the loan amount requested plus the other monthly rental expenses (property manager fee, water, sewer, etc).
  
  A debt coverage ratio of less than 1 means there is not enough cash flow to pay back a mortgage loan. Most lenders are looking for a coverage of 1.35 which means the property will need to generate 1.35 or (35% more) in cash above and beyond what is required to pay the monthly mortgage payment.
  
  Call us today at (541) 686-8246 for a list of lenders who can provide you more information on current debt coverage ratios. Don’t rely on the internet for something as important as your financing needs for your commercial properties.”
