I bought it from a wholesaler - the seller was elderly, had already moved out, and in fact passed away during the process but the sale was being transacted by his son and it continued on in spite of this hiccup.This is a 3/1.5/1 ranch in a very desirable (for moderate home prices) area off Red Bridge Road called St.

I'm looking for a good wholesaler in UT, preferably Box Elder, Davis or Weber counties.  

One is an elderly lady who has lived there for 23 years. 

He gets paid $100 every weekend to keep about six houses clean for an elderly woman who's husband passed last year.

Question: is it because I'm becoming an "elder statesman" type or due to frustration reading posts on these forums of those who won't invest in themselves, let alone help others? 

I would make an honest effort to avoid that, however, not just because of financial and time costs to you to turnover the unit, but because if he's elderly and hard of hearing, plus on Section 8, he's going to have a rough time finding housing.

This is very popular in CA because it allows the HO to accommodate elderly parents, grown children, even roommates.

Hello @Karl Chapman you can see on Loopnet right now in San Diego, CA there are quite a few elder care homes for sale.

It's not such a big deal until the water is rising quickly and you are cursing the day you chose to take the advice of an internet message board instead of purchasing the flood insurance and your years of cash flow are about to go poof...or glurg glurg...as it were.The FEMA maps are based on probabilities, not on the anecdotal evidence of elderly citizens or even if a flood has historically occurred in a certain time frame.  100 year flood = 1% chance of that area being flooded.  500 year flood = 0.2% chance of that area being flooded.As with any insurance you can forego it and save a few bucks and you win!!...
