You should consult an attorney or CPA for your specific situation.ANONYMITY: When you create the LLC, your name is recorded on the documents and published on the Secretary of State website for all to see.

Thanks to @Jay Hinrichs for looking at those documents.

Your offer, contract, and assignment, documents are the most important documents, as they are the bases for all rights and responsibilities.

Since there is even less documentation to look at/review with this, pricing is a bit higher than your typical DSCR LTR/STR product, however, there are numerous ways you can structure the deal to make certain the #'s work for you.

This will strengthen your documentation and will have basis if you are ever challenged by IRS.

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

This can get pretty complex, pretty quickly, so just keep that piece in check for audit documentation and make sure you have good records on all of it.

The home buying process typically follows these key steps:Assess Your Finances: Review your credit score, savings, and determine how much you can afford for a down payment and monthly mortgage payments.Get Pre-Approved for a Loan: Work with a lender to get pre-approved, which gives you a clear budget and shows sellers you’re a serious buyer.Find a Real Estate Agent: Partner with an experienced agent who knows the local market and can guide you through the process.Search for Homes: Browse listings and visit properties that fit your criteria (location, size, price, etc.).Make an Offer: When you find a home you like, submit an offer through your agent, including contingencies (financing, inspections, etc.).Home Inspection & Appraisal: Once the offer is accepted, hire an inspector to ensure the home’s condition and the lender will order an appraisal to verify the property’s value.Secure Financing: Finalize your mortgage by submitting required documents and ensuring the lender clears you for closing.Closing: Sign the final paperwork, pay closing costs, and receive the keys to your new home!

These are not typically smooth because even when you meet all their guidelines the lender's investor will usually require more documentation.

Plus we have several other documents from WLB like non-standard lease provisions, rules and regs etc we use as well, so it adds up.
