Wholesaling is another way to generate cash by finding off-market deals and selling them to investors.

If you do place the property in her name, then inherit it later, it does allow for you to receive a step up in basis at that point, allowing you to sell the house shortly after her death without paying capital gains tax.5. 

Should I file suit to make them sell the property?

You can also consider selling the properties to the tenants on terms.

Quote from @Jeffrey Bourque: Hello All, I am new and this is my first attempt at purchasing a property with the intent to create monthly cash flow.The property: Triplex Listed at $140,000 - Total monthly rent income $2,150 - Tenants want to stay and are all willing to sign new leases for 3 years - 8 beds 5 baths and 3,500sqft livable space on a 4,800sqft lot - Heat and electric paid by tenants and water trash paid by owner $180 month - I have managed to talk the selling price down to $105,000 with a kick of $10,000 for closing and commissions so $115,000 all in - Building is in fairly good shape according to pictures and questions but have not done a inspection yet - some general maintenance repairs are needed according to the seller but nothing that seems to bother the tenants. - Taxes are on the higher side at $6,000 yearMy Numbers: $115,000 putting 20% of my money $23,000 and finance the rest with total expense of $1,834Monthly expense numbers: Future Maintenance 13% $273 - Vacancy 5% $105 - Property Insurance 5% $105 - Property Taxes 23% $500 - Property management 10% $215 - Office/Travel/Legal 4% $84 - Mortgage 26% $552 - Monthly Cash Flow - $316 per month or $3,792 per year so Cash on Cash = 17%I think this looks like it is a deal worth doing and I also believe I can bump the total rent up by $50 each tenant which I think make it even better.

Is this an offer to sell, invest, or broadcast?

Your ability to identify properties and markets where you can generate equity (both imputed and appreciated) while using debt responsibly and knowing when is most appropriate to sell is how you acquire more real estate. 

The second home is under contract to sell for the same price, 257k. 

Some lenders will fund 100% of the deal + renovations if you are experienced.Wholesaling is possible but be mindful that it is a business, you don't make any money until you can persuade someone to sell their house and then to find a buyer.I personally think its easier to be an agent, still a business but there should be people teaching you and you have more of a reputation when talking to sellers.

Maybe a mom & pop owned small multi-family can owner finance or sell to you with some guidance for the transition.
