Get a small credit card.

Win-win for both parties.

Only time I accept anything less if is it’s multiple renters and the other one or ones can qualify without the one with the poor credit score, someone comes from another country and they give me a printout of there credit score there, or the have no credit cause they’re actually fiscally responsible and have zero credit card debt at an age where most have plenty. 

What is the cost to build, and what is the value of the small lot with a completed build worth (Z)Value= X+YValue =X+ZIf X covers your cost after the rehab and you pick up Y for nothing and can build and sell for a gain that is a win. 

We're talking like a 2008 type of catastrophe happening before you'd have to worry about notes being called due, and still you'd find banks to back you as long as you held cash-producing assets.As long as you use a HELOC to purchase an asset, you win.

It was an interesting lot, the county created a handful of parcels on the lake and opened it up as a lottery to win the right to choose and buy a parcel.

If I push them to get savings accounts/debit cards, are there ways to process rent with a debit card?

Heck you could likely do credit card stacking in your personal name and get 45k or so.

RE as a community we always talk about the wins.
