Hi, I'm Tom, and I'm very grateful to have found BiggerPockets because I can see the incredible effort the members here pour into sharing their understanding and successes.Over the last two weeks since I found BP, I've made reading these blogs and forums my 2nd full-time job.A little history about me: I've been extremely interested in using real estate investing to earn "passive" income and equity by renting out property ever since I first heard of the idea as a teenager.

I have been really wanting to get into house hacking and or wholesaling real estate since I was a teenager.

You can write the lease in his name and have him sign, but include her as an occupant similar to if he had a teenage child.
