  What Is Debt-Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR)? Corporate, government and personal finance have the debt-service coverage ratio applicable to them. In relation to corporate finance, the  debt-service coverage ratio (DSCR)  is the quantification of a business’s available cash flow to pay current debt obligations.

On 31st July, the foreclosure moratorium, which prevents foreclosures of federally-backed mortgages, will come to an end. And the mortgage forbearance program will end on Sept. 30. Over 7 million homeowners have been enrolled in the  forbearance program  since the beginning of the pandemic. But because of the impro v ement in the economy, that number has dropped. As per the data of July 11, there are still 1.75 million borrowers who have enrolled in the forbearance program. The foreclosure crisis during the housing bubble was very bad, leading to tens of millions of financially strained homeowners were underwater where the borrower’s remaining mortgage balance was greater than the home’s value and they had no choice but to face foreclosure.
