What is the 2026 conforming loan limit in Anne Arundel County, MD?

$806,500 for a one-unit property. Loan amounts above that move to jumbo or portfolio investor pricing. On a DSCR purchase at the county average basis of $494,286, an 80% LTV loan is roughly $395,429, so most files here stay inside the limit.

Which Anne Arundel County market has the best rental cash flow?

On current modeling, Glen Burnie shows the strongest coverage in the county at about 0.77x, with an estimated $1,850/month lease against a $350,000 basis. Glen Burnie offers the lowest entry price at $350,000. Both are worth modeling on a specific address before you choose a submarket.

Can I use one DSCR lender across multiple Anne Arundel County properties?

Yes, and it is usually the faster path. DSCR loans have no cap on financed properties, so once a lender has your entity documents, guaranty and reserve verification on file, subsequent acquisitions in Anne Arundel County close on the same underwriting profile — typically 21–30 days per file, with the appraisal on the critical path.

Do property taxes in Anne Arundel County affect my DSCR ratio?

Directly. County-assessed taxes sit inside PITIA, which is the denominator of the ratio. At the $494,286 county average, taxes and insurance are already built into the $3,508 monthly PITIA figure above. A reassessment after purchase can move a 1.05x file below 1.0, which is why we underwrite to the reassessed value rather than the seller's current tax bill.

Investing in Anne Arundel County

Anne Arundel County covers 7 rental markets we actively finance in Maryland — Annapolis, Crofton, Edgewater, Glen Burnie, Odenton, Pasadena and 1 more. Across those markets the median investment basis averages $494,286, a long-term lease averages $2,357/month, and the average all-in PITIA on a DSCR loan at the minimum down payment is $3,508.

Basis varies more inside Anne Arundel County than the average suggests. Glen Burnie is the lowest entry point at roughly $350,000, while Glen Burnie currently models the strongest coverage ratio in the county at 0.77x. When two towns in the same county ratio differently, it is almost always the rent-to-price relationship rather than the rate — the same loan pricing applies county-wide, so the deal is won on which submarket you buy in.

County-level inputs that move your ratio

Everything in Anne Arundel County shares one set of county-level inputs, and they matter to your ratio: the 2026 conforming loan limit here is $806,500, county property tax is assessed and collected at the county level, and recording and transfer charges at closing are set by the county clerk. Those three items are the reason a DSCR file that pencils in one county can fail two counties over at an identical price and rent.

1 of the 7 markets here support meaningful short-term rental revenue, so an STR-qualified DSCR file is a live option in Anne Arundel County — expect 25% down, six months of reserves, and address-level permit verification before you go hard. Average estimated cap rate across the county is 3.58%.
