(Positive Cash Flow)2007-We were transferred to Hawaii where we bought a beautiful home with a detached Ohana (Mother-in-law suite).

I have been around the business of real estate my whole life (mother owns and runs a title agency) but never actually put any of my own effort into it.

Ive been lenient with most, such as a mother who took in her daughter and grandkids...but required them to sign on the lease (the adults) .

Since then, my mother's health has declined and I am spending more and more time in Tahoe.

I'm lucky I'm still married and supported by my wife and my mother who pays for my full time nurse. 

@Anita MuhammadOne of the reasons why I picked real estate investing and self-managed local landlording as my way into real estate investing is that I was kind of born into it -- my grandfather ran apartments this back in his day and I grew up on stories told by my mother about the life.

My second house has a single mother, more like 3x monthly rent, one income She has been renting from this TK provider for two years and has supposedly never been late.

The person selling the house is the heir to the house and they went through the probate process in Massachusetts where their mother died.

My mother has been in a nursing home for over four years.
