I think she could end up being a long term, low-fuss tenant.We've never rented to anyone with an adult child lik ethis that we intend on getting an application from and running the background check and standard stuff on both and putting them both on the lease.My question is do you hold the adult child (or any other adult co-applicant in other scenarios) to the credit score limit of your criteria??  

Hello everyone,Recently we had a newborn and I don't know how to approach this situation - I'd like to know everyones thoughts on a child education savings plan. 

@Nicholas Reece I took my eldest child with me to the title company to close, took a pic of him signing (scribbling) his name on a blank page.

We cannot commit a lot of free time, due to full-time jobs and a small child (no flipping/wholesaling, right?).

This is not the life I want for me or my child.  

.- His lease is for himself and his adult son (a police officer), but for the last several months his adult daughter and her 5 year old child have been living in the home, and will continue to indefinitely

Your child support must be crazy expensive.

For the most part, you are covering temporary needs (income replacement, mortgage, child care, kids college).

@Scott Szurek, Most states have a governing body that does child care assessments to make sure the property is kosher for running a day care.

@Raman Bindlish  I would take care of the railing spacings since you would be liable if a child got hurt, especially because you had notice.
