@Susan O.It could be done, but the transfer in the father's share of ownership would be considered a gift and he would have to pay taxes on the gift.Also, non-married people buying a property together like a father/daughter would lose the capital gains exemption.This is to prevent people from adding their children to dodge estate taxes.

I've seen a couple of properties in Springfield especially with a sign from the county, something along the lines of "this property is an environmental hazard due to lead, unsafe for human occupancy, especially for children under the age of 6 and pregnant women..."

We could be risking not having ownership of the house in the future but she also has 2 children with me so I would have her keep the multi if we split up anyways...... is this a bad idea?

Not get rich quick schemes.I have young children and a job i got let go from a while back.

I would unload, and a lot of people do.I personally feel I would be setting a piss poor example of fiscal economy for my children. 

For instance, so far from a school, close to children that are not of his bloodline, etc.

I'm 27 years old with a wife and three children and I am looking to invest in real estate within the next year.

I have been married and divorced twice now and I have 2 beautiful children Brooklyn (13 years old) and Boston (10).  

Just because someone dies it does not mean their property passes down to their children.

They started getting popular in the late 70s and early 80s, I believe, and there has been an incredible bull market since that time, so people who entered the workforce at that time and contributed diligently all these years (and just left it alone) are finding they have a nice nest egg, as long as their home is paid off and children are on their own by now.
