Hello buyers in the Spokane, WA area and the PNW!

The right property manager will take up majority of the workload for managing tenants / maintenance and everything else. 

Don't miss the forest for the trees.Set up last-minute payroll.

I also suspect the vast majority of lenders will take exception to your mom being the 1st position lien (look up strategic default).

Quote from @Nadia Jones: Also posted in Getting Started Forum, but figured multifamily category may also generate some responses...so posting here as well. 

I agree with all the posts to have in-laws keep property until death and get the stepped upped basis at that time.  

But don't worry, the CA government has come up with a new and unique approach to this.

That does not require employment or job seasoning instead it uses the rents to qualify and you can take out up to 80% LTV cash.Use the cash to put down on the next 1-2 or more properties as long as the other properties are debt servicing themselves it opens up more opportuities to buy more future assets and increase your passice income.  

I posted awhile back about the new short term rental rules in San Antonio here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/530/topics/1200417-new-...Wanted to share a brief update on my experience and some other helpful notes:The city is getting serious about these rules.

All the best, Joy
