That's generally "family" siblings, cousins and such.Mom is probably a different story, parents usually don't want to "short" their kids, be a burden, but you know mom better than we do!

I am a hard money lender but would not walk down that path with my siblings.  

To correct the problem, I was told by a probate attorney's assistant (because of my prior experience as a legal secretary) that I should prepare a small estate affidavit, having the document signed, notarized by all siblings and two witnesses.

They were basically accidental landlords, who worked hard at their other professions, who were lucky to have good tenants.These building will pass down to the sibling ( my friend) and his brother as inheritance and will be 50/50 ownership.

Best I can hope for is give my most trustworthy sibling power of attorney as a backup for major issues, and leave the rest to property management.

If I were in your shoes, though, I would reach out to a parent, grandparent, older sibling (even your current boss) and try to get someone to cosign a mortgage for you.

The property is being sold by the siblings of the original owner.

My father is taking out a mortgage for this property and my 2 siblings and I are starting an LLC to basically manage it.

She and her 2 siblings are inheriting a home in Clovis, CA from their father. 

My 3 siblings and I inherited my mom's house after she passed away in 2008.
