Buying a property for separated spouse to live as a first invest
Newbie investor here looking for any flaws in a plan that came to mind. My spouse and I have recently separated and she is looking for a better place to live but cannot afford down payment for loan. I was thinking of buying a property as an investment property and renting it out to her. I know the property she is looking at she will be able to afford, will probably be less than rent and storage fees she is paying now. I look at it as a buy and hold as she is just paying off the mortgage for me. Anything I may not be thinking about as a downside to plan?
