I did something this week that caused me to reflect a bit on where I started and how far I've come.

However, this would force them to move out, lose their current rental income, and have to pay rent off their limited salary. 3.

Under Alabama law, that is a VERY dangerous play and you could end by losing money.You also cannot sit back and let him build the house and say "Thanks."

There are some types of trusts that bring a lot of protection, but you generally lose control of your assets and they are managed by someone else. 

Yes to both.Did the construction start?

If you go this route, make sure there is a very very very wide spread because it's so high risk and easy to lose.

Could you expand upon "leverage the start of your entire life"? 

Quote from @Erica King: Hey hey so I’m a single mom that started house hacking a little over a year ago .

It's easier to manage this property now that I sold the other one.I still have to see how much I will get hit by the IRS for 2024 (which is when I sold the other property)I have considered selling the one I have left (in 2026) but I would lose diversification because then I'd have 90% in the Stock market.

I start by telling them we have a lot of money tied up in the property, and we've been burned by folks that wanted us to believe the best of them.
