When I entered college I started in on the house my boyfriends mother owned.

I locked up the unit and that's how it will stay now for at least a month until the court order is given to the parents.Day 6 - The mother invited me to the funeral. 

I did move back with my mother in the meantime to save up some money and buy a second home for my two-year-old daughter and I.

I be got to pay my mother 550 a/month for 5 years or 38000!

I was raised around people who are small minded and believed in living pay check to paycheck no father figure no mother no one to teach me how to save and use my finances.

After failing to find a suitable multi-family that had workable numbers we started looking at properties with guest house / "mother-in-law" suite potential and were pleasantly surprised with the options...especially with some vision.  

My mother and myself have recently got the rental bug and are looking to cash out on a current property of ours.

Basically saying only MOTHER NATURE knows what will happen when it comes to flooding and just because a property is in or out of a floodplain or more likely flood map doesn't mean that the property could never flood.

There is only a little over $3k left (a significant amount to me, but not enough worth trying to take him to court).The odd part of this situation and where my question arises is that his mother is offering to pay what's left under the auspicious that I will not tell him she did so.

If/When I get deployed, I will more than likely give power of attorney to my mother so that she will be able to resolve any complicated issues that may arise.
