Short-Term Rental Financing in Abingdon, VA

The Abingdon ratio math on this product

Gross nightly revenue in Abingdon models to about $2,425/month across a full year. Lenders do not credit that dollar-for-dollar — a 28% haircut for vacancy, cleaning, platform fees and management leaves $1,746 of creditable income. Against a PITIA of $1,925, that is an estimated DSCR ratio of 0.91x. That lands just under 1.0. It does not kill the deal in Abingdon: moving to a larger down payment ($82,500) usually closes the gap, and several shelves fund down to 0.75x with a rate add-on.

Underwriting notes specific to STR files: plan on 25% down as the floor, six months of PITIA in reserves, and either twelve months of Airbnb/VRBO earnings statements on the subject property or a third-party market revenue study for a property with no operating history. Short-term rentals are active in this market; licensing and zoning are set locally and we verify the specific address before quoting. Verify the permit status of the exact address before you go hard on earnest money — an unpermitted STR is an unfinanceable STR on this product.
