You really want to be dealing directly with the mother, or a person with Power of Attorney.

Look for properties with high tension power lines over it.  

If the landlord was aware of his past, yet rented to him anyway - any lawyer worth their salt would make a nexus between those two pieces of information and create a liability claim.In addition to the extreme negative press you would get, it also takes time, money and energy to defend a lawsuit you will eventually win.

I'd only look at land that's at least connected to water and power and already has a septic plan in place.

All extremely useful input. 

Generally most of us aren't going to go through the guilty party's profile and take down everything that qualifies because it takes a lot of time and effort, and most threads have an extremely short shelf life - no one is going to remember it or see it a couple of days from now.

I understand, just saying flipping in Baltimore is extremely difficult, especially for someone just starting in this current market. 

Currently I had borrowed 12.5k to consolidate credit card debt and I can borrow up to 23k. 2) Would it be wise to roll this into my home mortgage so I can get the tax break for the interest and allow for more borrowing power from a credit union?
