Wisconsin DSCR Loans for Single-Family Rental Investors

With moderately affordable property values, steady population growth driving high rental demand and rising rents in key markets, Wisconsin has become an attractive option for SFR investors looking for both strong cash flow and long-term appreciation.

Markets like Green Bay, Madison, Milwaukee and Kenosha have all seen notable increases in average SFR rents¹. Green Bay led with a 16.5% YoY jump, bringing average rents to $1,993. Madison followed with a 4.1% increase to $1,666², while Milwaukee rose 3.7% to $1,641. Kenosha saw a modest uptick of 0.8%, reaching $2,072³.

Green Bay, Milwaukee and other markets offer opportunities for both STRs and LTRs, but Madison stands out, earning a spot on AirDNA’s “Best Places to Invest in Short-Term Rentals in 2025.” With an annual revenue potential of $64,849 and a gross yield of 14.2%⁴, Madison provides consistent cash flow and a faster ROI.

Why Wisconsin is Standing Out for Investors

Wisconsin is quickly getting noticed thanks to rising rents and solid demand across its biggest markets. Green Bay saw the sharpest rent jump, while Milwaukee and Kenosha continue to deliver steady income opportunities. Madison, however, is the real star, ranked by AirDNA as a top STR market. Whether you’re after cash flow or long-term appreciation, Wisconsin has plenty of upside. With Visio Lending’s DSCR loans, you can qualify based on rental income and scale faster in this growing market.
