I got into REI though after I remarried though when my wife had 3 rental properties.

He remarried a few years back, and his current wife owns her home free and clear.

Of course time, experience and dedication to always do your best are some of the keys to success.I have recently remarried and plan to finally end the endless and grueling financial struggles. 

I will edit it.My husband's mother passed away in 2016, and my husband has owned the house since 2017.Her fiancee (we will call him "John") has since remarried and is living with his new wife. 

I make decent money (still self employed but very much in demand), recently remarried with a great family life, and at the time of this post have a credit score of 740! 

If it only has her name on it, quite possible she remarried, and left the property to her children from another marriage.

I know a lady who divorced her husband and she kept getting remarried, but her new husbands would catch some dread disease and die. 

I bought at the height of the market and lived in it for 4 years, then remarried after the market crashed.

If you're unwilling to do this, and talk about tough topics (like what happens if one of you dies, divorces, remarries, the partnership needs more money, you can't agree on replacing the roof, etc., etc., etc) then I recommend an alternative.

You can use a VA loan as long as you have served in the military or are currently serving in the military.There are specific time requirements in the military, the min are for active duty are:Min 2 years of continuous service to be eligible for VA or the full period in which you were ordered to active dutyIf you're not active all you need is to be honorably discharged on your DD-214 (discharge papers) and if you're in the reserves or national guard (non navy, army, marines, air force) you'll need to complete 6 years of service.Un-remarried spouses of an eligible service member who dies as a result of service or service connected injuries can be eligible too.
