There are high quality facilities who will accept program participants, however some facilities are clearly undesirable, in my observation.Since the heirs or beneficiaries also stand to benefit from smart planning, it would make sense to me that they should be involved on both planning and funding the plan. 

He is getting $350 to put up fencing (not including materials) on one side of the property at one of my units to screen off an undesirable view.

Would you rather pay a higher price for a 2 family in good condition in a good area, or a dirt cheap price for a run down double in an undesirable area. 

Prices are edging down from the peak on the investment front and there are still plenty of REO / bank owned / foreclosed properties coming to market to keep people from getting crazy on peripheral investment markets.    

To many though it's not a problem, it's a way to force out the undesired element.

Also, don't forget about the costs and headache of evicting undesirable tenants....

In going through MLS listings I was seeing multiple duplexes and triplexes for 100-300k, and most of them seem very undesirable!

That being said, life DOES happen, and to have no way to redemption after life has taken a wrong turn (think divorce, catastrophic accident, cancer, etc) is unconscionable, in my book.I see that you have an engineering and finance degree....surely you are not making an argument that everyone who graduates with debt is "unqualified" academically, or with an "undesirable" course of study?

Take an RE course so you feel like your doing something for yourself to make you happy and gradually move away from the undesired job. 

I would post warnings in writing to correct the undesirable actions.
