The first step was having her siblings sign waivers that they have no objections. 

As someone who spends a good amount of time daily prospecting for business ( calling fsbo / expired / book of clients ) you need to have an agenda and some ways to handle objections.

@Daniel Mendoza, what is your ultimate objective, SFR, Multi-family, etc.? 

My objective was to have something that was short and to the point. 

By buying strategically, my "work trips" are now dual purpose and instead of disrupting my life, they enhance it.On a more "nuts and bolts" perspective, I prefer secondary and tertiary markets...I gravitate to mom and pop suburban or even rural properties because they best meet my own investment objectives (value add) as well as play to some of my personal preferences.

If they want a big family like that, then they need to be somewhere that is suitable for what their objective.

It is easy to chase the shiny object in real estate with so many different niches and asset classes.

As for the BK13 plans, I get our attorneys to object to their plan if paying taxes and insurance is not part of it. 

What are the goals/objectives here? 

After AirBnB started collecting lodging taxes from guests and remitting them to city/state governments on the hosts' behalf, I think this made government outcry a little quieter.Of course, I'm only talking about city objections here.
