well I have no money of my own for down payment because I make under $800/month and my rent is $500, two kids and ailing mother finishes off the rest with the bills I can barely make the minimum payments on.

My mother will also be more than happy to cosign for me we both have good credit (750+) and she does very well for herself.

I am the mother of four, and they are my reason why!

It's very unsettling, and I feel horrible as this was a young mother...Anyway, another family member (who is also a tenant in the same unit) asked if there was any way to get out of the lease, stating they wouldn't be able to live there anymore given what happened.  

Everyone and their mother sends out the Just Listed Cards... add a little twist to it.

I never went to college.. my mother was an alcoholic and I pretty much raised myself..literally.. we barely had a meal on the table every night let alone ever sat down to think about going to or applying to college.. at 21 i started a house cleaning business which is very successful..

My name is Jessica Sheppard, I am a 31 year old wife and mother of 2...I currently work full-time in a completely opposite field - healthcare.

I grew up in this world and have a mother who has been a top producing  agent for 25 years and a father who is a DR. who leans more to the investing side.

Alas, with a mortgage on the property, this isn't an option for her.If she isn't looking to utilize her credit much in the next 8 years, she could sell it on a subject-to or wrap, which would accomplish the same objective as an owner carry, but the buyer would have to pay the mortgage plus some amount to your mother every month.Thanks @Meghan McCallum for the shout out.

But it doesn't sound as if these people will catch up, if only the mother works and they're used to sitting on the couch.
