What Would You Do?

[George Gipson III]

Ok a extremely close relative own $3400 in taxes and need to be paid by the 15th of this money. They don't have the money and it's 2 rental properties on 1 lot both are paid off. I can't give that much up right now. They are willing to put the property in my name if I pay it. Would I be able to take out a mortgage on the property if it's kind of raggedy but rented out always and currently no insurance. They need to collect the rent to pay their bills still but I was thinking about take out like a $20000 mortgage out to get my money back and down payment for a duplex. What would you do?
