However, we would like to build one home for our aging mother and one for ourselves.

My mother of all people , when i tell her and her husband that i want to have cash on hand after the purchase for cap ex and maintenance they cant understand what the warranty , insurance, etc will not cover. im new to home ownership too so i didn't have the answer but i mean cmon its not free to live once you make it into a house haha note my mom has only lived in her own house for the past 2 years in her whole life. whats vacancy rate do you use when running numbers on things?

Background is she’s about 4 months behind in total rent, original lease ended in December, now going month to month because I didn’t want to put her out as she’s a single mother with 3 kids (also didn’t have the bandwidth to go through the eviction process because this property is in another city)I hired a property manager to help and we’ve recouped a bit of money but she’s still about 6500 owed.

Every place we looked his mother came with him and told him he was making the dumbest mistake in his life. 

My mother's side of the family is from Cleveland area so I know a few folks over there.

My mother has several properties that have been mismanaged or not managed at all and she has enlisted my help to get caught up, but I'm a bit over my head.

(Allowing only single mothers to apply or “accidentally” only accepting them.

The first showed up with a mother pitbull and her 8 puppies or she gave birth to them in my garage.

Here is something that I didn't see anyone else mention yet; SINGLE MOTHERS.

Property is owned by a Trust (My mother owned it and passed away) I'm the trustee of the trust but the lease is in the name of the management company which is an LLC and I'm the only member of the LLC..
