Research notes

Found: 'No minimum DSCR requirement' with sub-1.0 funded with reserves/compensating factors (no numeric floor stated, so sub1DscrFloor null); no-ratio program 'Up to 75% LTV with 700+ FICO'; min FICO 620 (740+ for best pricing); loan range $100K-$4.5M in-house with exceptions; '15% down available at 740+ credit' (recorded as 85% max purchase LTV; 20-25% down is typical) and cash-out 'up to 80% LTV'; 1-4 units, condos, townhomes, PUDs, long- and short-term rentals (STR qualified via appraisal market rent, rental history or AirDNA-type data); borrow as individual or US LLC with personal guarantee, also partnership/corporation/S-corp/revocable trust vesting; no investor experience required; 'no-seasoning options available' for cash-out (recorded as 0); prepay typically 1-5 years with penalty-free options; 30-yr fixed, 40-yr fixed, 5-year ARM and 1-year SOFR ARM; interest-only available; lends in all 50 states + DC (licensed in 47 + DC, so a few states may be served differently). NOT found: explicit max rate/term LTV, reserve months (stated only as 'varies'), max loans, rural policy (listed only as 'harder to finance'), ITIN. Foreign national lending is mentioned as a separate Griffin program but not confirmed for DSCR, so foreignNationalAllowed left false. The 5-year ARM and 1-year ARM were not mapped to rateTypes because the reset period is not stated.
