You need a good score to qualify for a mortgage.

On the one hand managing 5  or 6 properties is the sweet spot for being able to qualify for all things residential and is easily doable for a busy person; on the other hand it is becoming tougher because you don't have the benefits of scale where the income becomes more significant and helps you through a vacancy or 2.

When you are ready to sell to them. have them pre-qualify for their maximum loan amount and the terms - VA, FHA, conventional with ?

That being said, I find personal properties much easier to qualify for!

These homes make difficult rentals and nobody who can qualify for a loan (in today's market) will buy there.I am leery of foreclosures that have sat through multiple winters as well as properties that have unapproved upgrades from previous owners.

Since you guys don't own property already you should easily qualify for first time homeowner financing.  

From an ROI standpoint, the best ROI items are the things that will take the house from being unable to allow a buyer to qualify for a loan to a house that is in good enough condition to allow the buyer to qualify for a loan.Beyond that, there's not enough information to answer your question. 

They do not qualified you through credit rating , but onhow you manage your house hold.

How can you tell when a house that catches your eye qualifies for a closer look?
