I'm guessing we'd be spending $1mm-1.5mm+ easily on our new home living in OC.My parents live in Peoria, AZ so always thought of the idea of investing in AZ.

I have a neighbor who lost both parents a few months ago and is now clearing out the parents' former home.

My wife and I are contemplating buying a home for our parents who are in the UK and in their 70s but rent and the uncertainty of whether their rent will increase, their landlord will sell etc.. is starting to cause them significant concern. 

My parents are selling their double wide mobile home, and they have an outstanding mortgage balance on it.

Both are ROTH's so I will never pay tax on the gains or incoming rents.You sound like you already know the rules, but you can't ever use the property for you or your parents or kids as long as it is held in your IRA.

My parents are on the verge of retirement (unfortunate timing) and I'm trying to think outside of the box for them with their current retirement strategy.

However, the execution of a second mortgage, or some special mortgages are a lot more complicated and some encumbrances can stay after court auction.If I understand well, escrow means basically withholding funds until certain steps are cleared in the sale and purchase process... so this is like someone dealing with payments.

I would have no problem renting to the 20-year old, but the 16-year old should not be on the lease, nor allowed to live there without a co-signed lease from her parents.

This is a special IRA set up where someone else, besides the child, such as a parent or family member may make contributions for the child.

I own a rental in Colorado but my parents have always rented it so I would still call myself a beginner, especially in the property management side. lolLooking to purchase some homes around Charleston and Summerville and always looking for a good deal to go bigger and get into multi-family units as well.
