It was heired to her grand child who does not want the property.

Both cousins are female in their mid 30s. Together they have enough income for the rental. What verifications/due diligence shall I do? Thanks.

We invest in Guadalupe county now, but since there aren't any REIAs near us, we've been going to the CHREIA since it started a few years back (although we haven't attended much lately due to the birth of our third child).If you're interested, PM me and I'll send you the contact info.

My parents bought a house for me because I did a short sale 7 years ago and wasn't  able to get a loan back then. They have a 1031 exchange on this property . They bought it for 360k and its worth 499K now and 200k is...

I think what might add some context to my hesitation to jump into all of this is the fact that I am 7 mos pregnant with our first child and he also has another business that is not thriving yet - so all the unknowns of the expenses of those things make me want to be fairly conservative and be as bulletproof as possible when we do pull the trigger!

Check with the IRS and see if outgrowing a 1 bedroom condo with a new baby & other child can exempt the gain in less than 2 years if you need to move.

It is great because of the functionality of the "child" series for different properties, which can keep each compartmentalized when properly established.

I did a quick background and found he's been in jail for assault with a deadly weapon, child abuse with weapon, 2 counts of battery, he's a sexual predator, and violation of probation. 

All things being equal, I would go with the separate living arrangement of a duplex, but I'm almost 50 with a wife and child.

By year 3 we should be able to buy a nice duplex that will be our close to forever home so we can still continue to house hack but we’ll be settled in time before our first child starts kindergarten
