You could ask that they put a year or so of savings into a separate account on which you have view access or receive a monthly statement so you can see they have the ability to pay future rent.They aren't going to last without other income or savings with income at 1.25x rent.

Quote from @Jake Baker: @Andrew Syrios I looked at my last five flips to calculate the rehab cost overrun; the average was 15%.

@Drew Sygit, Last November Fannie Mae began accepting 5% down payments for owner-occupied 2-, 3-, and 4-unit homes.

I would call them and send certified letter signature required or if nearby drive to their last known address.

RE meetups that have helped me are very specific to San Francisco Bay Area market (sales and median rents in the last year and last quarter) so I'd recommend finding a meet up or session that might address your local market and if that's a viable option for you to invest in. 

Hey Justin, I'm curious what resources you found and how you've been educating yourself in the last few months??

Not bad for 2 days.This is the last unit to rehab on a quad purchase from Dec 2021 that I will be up ~$1m after the rehab is completed.  

If you would like to get more than the cash you paid for the property and use the new appraised value, the shortest period I've seen is 3 months of waiting period between when you closed on your last loan or transaction to when you close on your next loan / transaction.More on DSCR loans in case helpful: DSCR loans won't use your income to underwrite the loan.
