• at least 5 years' experience owning or operating a similar facility, or
• a long-term contract with a property management firm with this record of experience

You must also have a net worth of at least 25% of the value of the loan. Plus, you must be able to guarantee 100% of the loan until you have 12 consecutive months of stable rents.
