    2–4 unit properties are a larger share here than in most of Hawaii. A DSCR loan on a 2–4 unit property qualifies on the rent from all of its units.

Does a DSCR loan pencil in Hawaii County?

At HUD's fair market rent of $2,620 for a 3-bedroom in Hawaii County, Hawaii, a rental covers its full DSCR payment up to a purchase price of about $425,000, with 20% down at the 7.25% starting rate (November 2026). Hawaii County's median home value is $519,300; at that price the payment is $3,172 a month, so the property would need $3,175 in rent to cover it.

Coverage under 1.00 doesn't end the deal: the DSCR programs Dominick arranges go down to no-ratio, priced for the lower coverage, and a lower price or a larger down payment raises the ratio.

What Hawaii County's table can't show you: fit. Short-term financing is exempt from HMDA, so Hawaii County's fix-and-flip and bridge lenders barely appear among its 97 filers, and none of the 25 names above tells you whose guidelines match your deal, your entity, or your timeline. That's the job. Dominick Prevete structures your file and places it across 100+ lenders — including some on this list — so it lands with the one most likely to fund it.
