If Class B, C  or D, then what credit score are you expecting from an applicant?

There's a lot of value (even if a higher interest rate) to us finding a simple deal like this...We have great credit and solid income - I would think, for the right rate, there would be lenders out there jumping at the chance for these guaranteed returns - we'd even consider putting up the equity of the Texas home (and obviously the land itself) to secure some portion/all of the loan?

For lower credit score tenants, I only offer m2m.

If so should be a fairly simple process at 75 LTV if your credit score is solid.

The builders offer credits to buy the rate down, or they offer a discount if paying cash, so these make sense.

Maintaining good credit for favorable terms, larger down payments for better rates, managing debt-to-income ratio, comparing interest rates and loan types, projecting cash flow, understanding property preferences, exploring loan programs, maintaining financial reserves, planning an exit strategy, and seeking professional guidance.

For one, they typically will not lower the contract price, they need to protect their comps, so the credit has to be used for closing costs, rate buy downs and "upgrades."

Also, Roof and HVAC system were very old, so one of my partners negotiated with the seller and got $100K credit from Purchase price.

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