Buying a cabin in Gatlinburg TN. No rental history yet. My agent told me DSCR lenders will use AirDNA market data to project income. Is this true?

Yes, this is true - we accept AirDNA projections for STR properties with no rental history. We typically use 75-80% of the AirDNA projected gross revenue to be conservative.

That is a relief! Do you need the full AirDNA subscription or can I pull a free report?

The free AirDNA report is usually sufficient for a quote. Call us at (818) 447-7035 and we can pull it together on the call.
