buying your parent's home and making money for both
I was wondering if anyone has figured out a strategy to buy their parent's/family members house and make it beneficial for both.
For example, my dad's house is paid off and market value is approximately $135,000. He wants to buy a $200,000 house in a different part of town. His current house would rent for $1,200-1,350.
Example 2: My mom's house is valued at $150,000 and she has approximately $60-70,000 remaining on her loan. She also would like to move to a different part of town for around $215,000. My mom's house would rent for $1,350-$1,550.
My plan would be to somehow purchase both (if beneficial to them as well) and rent out.
I appreciate the help and suggestions. By the way, I'm a newbie.
