Use this spreadsheet to quickly calculate your properties Debt to Service Ratio (DSCR) in order to meet Commercial Property Lenders minimum DSCR guidelines. For apartments the minimum DSCR is 1.15 for our Stated Income Program. For office and retail, I would allow for 1.30 and 1.35 minimum requirement.
Banks and appraisers use a 40% expense ratio as a rule of thumb to initially see if the property will cash flow correctly. If the landlord pays all utilities for the tenant, I would use a 48% to 53% expense ration.
