I had to borrow the down payment form my parents because I was BROKE. 

I don't even mention interest.I did this recently and the guy picked the higher price with him carrying the mortgage for 5 years with no interest.Turns out a probate for one of his parents needed to be done so we are paying for this.

Last thing thougt of is have a little box of books and toys for little kids parents always appreciate it. 

I was born and raised in Prescott Valley, which is where my parents still live.

With my parents in real estate investing, I've learned a lot about the industry.

My parents had a 3 family growing up and I used to hate going there on weekends but I learned a lot and it obviously stuck with me.

I borrowed the $25k down payment from my parents at 8% and got the deal done.

It currently only has four units rented, although I would like to turn the 5th unit into my own, so that I can move out of my parent’s house and “househack” for a little.

When parents employ their minor child, the child is exempt from Social Security and Medicare (aka FICA) - if under 18.
