You may want to privately find out from the buyer what his tenant criteria are.

You would probably otherwise be limited to private equitable remedies. 

Hi,What advice could you give to someone starting  a Private  Money Lender business? 

Usually, they will refer to a placement agency who will tour the resident and family through at least three locations they think are the best fit for their client. 

So sorry to hear about your house being completely gone.Get with FEMA as soon as you can and get the balls rolling as well as your private flood insurance.

Portfolio lenders or private financing (HARD MONEY) also works well for the BRRR strategy, but does require more liquid cash.

Were you provided a Private Placement Memorandum and a copy of the company Operating Agreement?

Way I differentiate is private money may be a friend or family member vs. hard money which is a company or someone else.

I flew out there and did drive around the neighborhoods - they look much different in person than in photos and video tours (I do know a few CA investors who buy sight unseen in multiple states but I think their risk tolerance is higher than mine).
