We could come up with basically what the mortgage industry would call "Transaction Histories," but not "Bank Statements."

That document they provided, with all the colored font, was a mess to wade through.

Brady,When I do my screening for new tenants I would weight the rental history the most.  

Should i ask the downstairs tenant for the footage to have as proof to have and document for anything in the future? 

I don't think anything is 100% sure, and all the documents all the syndicators have you sign will melt your face off.

Since then, I've documented the process as a Boutique Hotel investor and have a deep commitment to sharing my knowledge around Boutique Hotel Investing with others who are looking for a path to financial freedom, and Boutique Hotels is the best path to get there in my personal opinion.

We take ID's for all guests (in a website called Chekin) so would have documentation the booking guest is above 21.

Quote from @Jim Bryant: As I stated before, the best thing to do in these court cases is to state your case quickly with documented evidence.

Quote from @Scott MacComb: I have had contractors just do a small list on a paper napkin, and some do something on a word document.

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