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.

Here are the Positives:Upfront Payment: The tenant’s offer to pay the full year of rent upfront, along with the deposit, shows a commitment and provides financial security for you in the immediate future.At least She was Honest in Her Communication: The tenant has been transparent about her situation, which can be a positive sign of reliability and sincerity.My Negative Concerns:Her Future Financial Stability: It's only a one-year lease, if her medical condition and financial condition should worsen (Heaven forbid), you may have to face her wanting out of the lease earlier than the 12 months and eventually you may be faced with having to decide not to renew the lease (after her 1 year contract is expired) based upon the sad news of her condition becoming worse, (Heaven forbid).
