Hey Alex, There are foreign national DSCR loan programs available for your scenario: Below are the list of requirements I have found most lenders have : 1.

A smart seller/listing agent will likely require a large EMD to tie you to performing on your offer, so be prepared for that. 

We require them to provide us copies of their licenses and be added to their liability insurance before assigning them any work.

Most (not all) HELOCs require that the property is titled to an individual (not LLC) and are full doc, meaning your employment history, income, DTI etc will be factors.

Traditional bank loans can be slow and have strict requirements, while hard money and private lending seem to offer more flexibility.For those who’ve secured funding before, what’s been your experience?

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

It's easy to obtain, costs very little, and doesn't require extra, on-going effort to maintain.

Most lenders require the delinquent balance to be paid before approving a VA loan assumption.

We require a photo ID and a working cell phone prior to stay, and their system blocks me giving my cell number to them so they can text a copy of their license to me.

The problem with that is it'll be harder for the residents and the vendors to use the rentvine features as fewer people want to log in to a website from a smartphone.Also, it requires a lot of clicks/scrolling/opening new pages/tabs to get to where you want.
