Missouri Rental Market Snapshot
State-level data DSCR underwriters use to size Missouri rental deals.
Missouri is a tale of two cities — Kansas City and St. Louis. KC MO-side has strong LTR demand and growing tech employment. St. Louis produces the highest cap rates of any large Midwest metro on stabilized inventory but condition and city assessment risk are real. Springfield (SW MO) and Columbia (Mizzou) offer middle-ground cap rates with university and medical demand.

Missouri Eviction Timeline & Landlord Posture
How Missouri courts handle non-payment evictions — material to DSCR loss-severity assumptions.
Missouri requires a 10-day rent-and-possession notice. Associate Circuit Court hearings typically resolve within 21 days of filing. St. Louis City calendar is the slowest in the state.
Missouri Rate Adjustment vs National Baseline
Sub-jumbo loan sizes and rent-control preemption keep loss severity in line with national curves.
Final pricing depends on FICO, LTV, DSCR, property type, and program. Baseline national DSCR refi rates start at 6.25% as of May 2026.
