In a few years you will appreciate it more and manage it better.And never ever tell strangers that you have $ as each and every scammer will say that they have a great deal. 

As I would tell all of my sellers, "if a stranger shows up promoting themselves as a buyer" I have a need to know.

Myself, I’ve got kids and my wife doesn’t won’t a stranger in our house.

@Kimberly Kesterke What I’ve learned in my 19 years of landlording, if you own rental properties in lower income neighborhoods you will be labeled a “slumlord” by friends, family and strangers.

I'd love to be able to set her up with enough money to retire, but also keep the trailer park in the family instead of her selling it to a stranger.

You could buy a SFH and find roommates, but you need to now manage strangers in your house as well as manage the property.

@Richie Thomas this advice is incredible and exactly what I needed to hear. 1. thank you for taking the time to look through this for an absolute stranger, it means so much 2. you make wonderful points - i really love your analogy of the Subway shop! 

For myself I would be hesitant to take out another 45k loan and give that cash over to a stranger who doesn't have any real remodel experience. 

This would allow her more time with the baby, and I could pay her wages rather than a stranger.

First we tried doing Airbnb with an extra room but eventually it got awkward with strangers in the house.
