Years ago, when I was involved with owning, rehabbing, then renting or selling properties -- we operated our own contracting and some of the maintenance functions.
The best way to sell a property was often to a good *seasoned 2 yr +* tenant, then sell to the renter on a rent purchase agreement / land contract.
We collected payments and they took care of the property -- worked out well in most cases -- a win-win for everyone.
We could try and cash out of our land contract later or assist the contractee (homeowner) in getting a government backed re-fi loan in the future. It became easier with a few years of payment history and increased home equity to get new financing -- cash out ;)
