Can projected bookings qualify me for financing?
Published October 1, 2026 · 1 minute read
The answer
Whether projected bookings qualify depends on lender requirements. A projection, existing reservation, and completed rental income are different evidence types. Ask what is accepted and how cancellations or seasonal changes are treated.
Do not assume that a revenue estimate from a website will satisfy underwriting. Even accepted projections should be tested separately for the property's actual ability to meet operating expenses and debt obligations.
