He made threats and a couple of days before the eviction hearing, he pulled down the ceiling in the kitchen and pretended that his mother had been injured when the ceiling "collapsed".

You touch upon an interesting niche---it's got me thinking...My mother is an one of these communities---age and ability (as in the ability to purchase the property) are the main criteria.

I have yet to do a deal myself, however when i became a real estate agent at the age of 20; my friends thought i was kidding, my dad practically disowned me and my mother thought i was going to fail.

My only consideration for becoming licensed is that my fiancee's mother and sister are both licensed agents and do very well, only as you said they, like so many others do not invest.

The only difference between your situation and a young friend I know who bought 7 properties in the past two years is 1) MBA 2) His father and mother' s money 3) plan 4) desire to quit working as a bartender.

One is a house that I looked at over a year ago but the owner wasn’t ready to sell because his mother was living there.

My mothers boyfriend is a carpenter and works with wood for a living.

In the last 2 years, I had one tenant that was being evicted pull down a portion of the ceiling and claim that his mother was injured when the ceiling collapsed on her.

loki005-More about me.....I am a mother, wife and I work full time as a nurse.

My love for real estate came when i helped my mothers friend remodel his home to get it ready for selling.
