You can bet that purchases I make from here on out will definitely be going through a much different qualification process!

There are a few differences than buying a regular house but most of the pre qualifications are the same. 

If it's a larger organization, feel free to inquire about their different staff qualifications.2.

But the reason you have this run on rentals is as stated the financing is there for landlords easiest to get you need no qualifications to get at least your first 4 loans etc.. 

If it's a larger organization, feel free to inquire about their different staff qualifications.2.

Unfortunately, we have a minimum income requirement to qualify for this unit (3 times monthly rent); based on your email, it appears you do not meet those qualifications.  

I will generally avoid them but worse case I require that each meets my screening qualifications independently.

If its a hot market by you, the LA probably isn't answering because they know they'll get offers in w/o any questions - it makes you seem difficult at this point when a price or your qualifications haven't yet been established.

Hey Keith McMiller I don’t know the qualifications needed to be an appraisal in your state but if you knew how to appraise you would definitely be ahead of the greater majority of newbie investors.

I would have them both apply, pay the application fee and see if the second person is really better or not.You could tell applicant number 1 that they are in the qualification stage but that property is still being advertised until you sign a lease.
