But the primary qualifications are the rental income for the property and credit score.

I have a pretty strict set of qualification standards for vetting prospective tenants.

No income verification for qualification makes it easier to get a loan, but riskier.

So your loan qualification will in part be determined by the specifics of the property since they will count a portion of the rent towards your payment.

No closing costs, no wait time, no qualifications etc. 

So I offered a relevant, actionable step to take.As to my qualifications as a real estate investor, I have none. 

Borker or seller won't even entertain your offer without some proof of funds or pre-qualification.

So within a year we have the law about deposit limits, requiring landlords to allow tenants to pay last month/deposit in 6 installments, then the First in Time law, requiring landlords to take the first applicant to meets their previously-specified qualifications, a proposal requiring landlords to justify any rent increases with documentation of their costs, and now this preventing landlords from checking or using criminal background as a selection criteria. 

(Even with good option money up front, strict pre- qualification screenings, RMLO, and win x3 attorney reviewed and "ok'd" contractuals.) 

You are hiring the pm and either giving them your qualifications or accepting the ones they have set as a company.
