hello-q: i hope that you have quite the plethora in information about the decide to..build a square space (office like in function) right next to house-to have "reason space" to work from home ('i am forced to work from home bcs of having parent who survives a stroke-cared for on/in house property, bcs putting her instead in assisted living-wouldn't be more affordable/feasable, and many states (california being one) are willing to help loved one(s) to age/stay in place as reason to build these extra spaces in/on property..putting her in the situation as more benefitting i am researching the state orgs to find out what to do=being as stellar the careful/accurate as i can with gathering as to what to do..including the obtain of funding per any grants.and trusting that having your consultation has us getting away from issue/noise over just purchasing/happenstance model in default assisted: residential (multi bed home stead-with all the red tape & fees/tax justify better?

Nor can your parents or kids.

A friends parents paid into the 20K membership.

I can get 15k from my parents and i have around 10k myself but can i get the other 65k?

I would be using the equity to purchase a new house for myself and my parents (they’re older now and need help)

The Cosigner Agreement states they are financially responsible, all communication will take place through the actual occupants, I don't deal with helicopter parents, they are responsible for payment of rent as well as any cleaning/repairs after termination, etc.Don't forget it's not easy to sue a cosigner if they live in another county.  

But if you are committed to purchase, a 2/2 would prevail over a 2/1, the price difference has to be nominal and now you might attract a different user like tow couples or adult friends that don't want to share a bathroom vs a young family that the kids are okay to use the same bathroom as the parents. 

It takes money to invest, so spend this time working hard and saving like a mad man while living off your parents for free.Educate.

My parents conditioned me to be a great saver, but saving will not lead to financial independence in most cases.Once I understood my relationship, and used the savings to invest in an asset to pay for an event, everything changed.

So my parents are buying my first fixer upper for me all cash in there name.
