This is NOT a Traditional LOAN ORIGINATION 

What documents do they require, what credit scores do they allow, how do they verify previous rental history, etc.?

They have a scoring system that predicts the chance the number is correct.

Lots of variables to take into account here:- credit, ltv, DSCR score (based of rent / anticipated PTIT(A), experienceAre you looking for a purchase or refi transaction? 

Almost nothing penciled out and I wasn't interested in buying properties with negative cash or banking on the possibility of future appreciation.So I resisted buying bad deals and pretty much sat on the sidelines from 2005 to 2009 and continued to build up cash, contacts, my credit score, and my RE knowledge/education. 

They only get an original signature.
