My step sister and I are the heirs.

Until then I am living with my brother and sister-in-law.

In the last couple of years I've found some great tenants from Zillow their sister sites Trulia and Hotpads.

If you've  ever driven through Springfield Wisconsin and saw the 1870's brick Church , I converted that into a house for my Sister - it was featured in the Milwaukee Journal. 

I see a great opportunity knowing that the other two want to sell I just need to get through to the sister in some way.

Her sister lives with her and plans to move out of state, so she is interested in selling apparently.  

She (the neighborhis sister) lives in the house does all the maintenance, and has paid all the property taxes. does the son own the property?

I was assigned a real estate agent through the sister company of the mortgage lending company.

My sister and I are trying to get into REI.

We purchase our student rooming house as a "home" for my sister-in-law {she does live there ... see below} and, because of that, the rents did not count towards income for the purchase.Clientele: When we looked at rooming houses we found three basic types of rooming/boarding house in our area.Student - there are two universities and community college in our little city, so students are a prime clientele;Industry/Organization/Institution - another type of rooming house is one which is near and caters to a particular employer/workforce (i.e. a factory) or institution (hospital, military).Social -  the third type in our area is the rooming house that caters to the working poor, the addicted, and other on the edges of society.Each of the above types of rooming house requires a different set of skills and management style.
