Traditional lenders can't underwrite premium insurance ALE income. We can. Qualify on the 1.5-2x market rent that insurance companies pay for furnished temporary housing. No personal income. No W-2. No tax returns.

When a home is damaged by fire, flood, hurricane, or other disaster, the homeowner's insurance policy pays for Additional Living Expense (ALE) — covering the cost of temporary furnished housing while repairs are made. Insurers pay premium rates (typically 1.5-2x market rent) for 30-90 day furnished stays because speed and availability matter more than price.
DSCR financing evaluates the property's ALE income potential — the premium rate an insurance carrier or ALE housing coordinator will pay — to determine if the property qualifies. No personal income documents. No DTI calculation. If the ALE rate covers the mortgage, the loan works.
Purchase a 1-6 unit residential property and furnish it turnkey. Think full kitchen, comfortable beds, living essentials — everything a displaced family needs to live normally.
Partner with an insurance ALE housing coordinator or third-party administrator. They fill your property with displaced families whose insurance pays the premium ALE rate directly.
Lenders divide the monthly ALE income by the mortgage payment. At 1.5-2x market rent, most properties easily exceed the 1.0-1.2x DSCR threshold — no W-2 or tax returns needed.
Insurance pays the ALE rate — typically 30-90 day stays with insurance-guaranteed payment. Your tenants cycle as claims resolve, but ALE coordinators backfill quickly with new referrals.
