DSCR loans don't require personal income verification or a debt-to-income ratio, making them ideal for properties with strong cash flow, even if the current owner has credit issues.Here's how it could work:You could use a DSCR loan to refinance the hard money loan, securing more favorable terms without having to involve the seller's credit.Since the rental income easily covers the property’s debt service, you’ll be in a good position for lender approval, bypassing the conventional mortgage route.This approach could allow the owner to stay in the house, while you take over financing with a less restrictive structure.

I've sold rentals before and almost always was asked for a copy of my Sch E.Also during the due diligence and inspection, try to talk to the tenants directly to confirm how much they pay, and also if there are known issues that haven't been repaired (roof leaks, frozen pipes in the same area every winter, etc).
