you would be surprised on how well that can be received as they just don't want to move.I am building 3 homes on a lot that I did that on 12 years ago.. not sure if it was the best use of our capital but back in the day and pre development we paid 80k for the house.. and now the area has regentrified and lots are worth a bunch 150 to 200k each.. but I spend another 100k getting that done. and she lived there rent free for 10 plus years.. and market rent in that area back then was probably 800 and in the last 4 to 5 years 1500 or more.. so like I said was it a great deal .. not sure.. but we had a paid for asset that is now worth a pretty good chunk and will build 3 homes on them and make about 300k net per home.. if I had to compete today for the same lots if would be a big stretch to take it down.. but who knows right.at 10k though seems to me you could pay it off and just set it and forget it.. when she passes or moves you own it for the 10k.. that seems like a win win.. think about that stategy.

In my experience this can causes problems if the seller gets upset that that buyer stretched the truth and an extension ends up being needed.

Perhaps not, but people do all the time - whether that nest egg is a retirement plan, after-tax savings, equity in their home, or family money.My point, I suppose, is that while pointing out that starting your own business is risky has merit, extrapolating that to say the ROBS plan in and of itself is risky is a stretch.
