What kind of loan would my retired parents qualify for?

Retired parents have $1M liquid cash in the bank, looking to buy a $500k home with 20% down.

Clearly they have enough to buy in cash, but the plan is to use other peoples money and have the rent cover the monthly payments.

There's no income, but if banks could somehow quarantine some of this liquid cash each year, they would guarantee no default in payment.

Is there a low interest rate loan they can get?

@Mike Franco a private lender will offer 30 year products (fixed or adjustable) with 20-25% downpayment. Personal income is not considered, underwriting will base the approval on the rental income vs monthly payment.

     Ya, one of the GSEs recently revamped their "asset depletion" offerings. LO would need all paperwork to figure out how it'll play out, however. Loan app, tax returns, asset statements, whole nine yards.

     Are they going to live in it?
