It had been empty since it was purchased in 2017 as the owner purchased the home for his father and made updates (new HVAC/water heater, bathroom fixtures, flooring, kitchen, also a new roof was put on in April due to hail damage).

@John Allen my father is an agent in the area and also an investor.

This set of tenants completely shocked us (trying to hide things they broke, then actually going as far as stating they left the home in better condition than when they moved in, the father had a verbal confrontation with a female neighbor, they were not paying for trash for over a year and were stuffing the neighbor's bins with their own trash, leaving piles on side yard behind gate, etc.).

When I started helping my father get into rentals I took over the pm role for him.

My father and I are thinking about getting a partner to help with the down payment on a fourplex but are hesitant because of the need to split the profits.

My father bought a 1964 Barracuda that we intended on restoring, but instead I had a S-10 that I put a bunch of money into (air ride, wheels, etc.)

My father may end up in a nursing home in the coming months. 

I just read it earlier in the year and lent it to my father a few weeks ago :) Your answers were very insightful.

The Philly house will also be in my name and my father's (we went 50/50) so do we create a joint account?

My Father and brother owned a rental house together.
