This was a block of land my Father in law purchased 50 years ago, built the apartments on some of the land and had plans for developing the rest until health issues got in the way.

Her husband and father came to help her move and stayed a couple days.

It’s been a great market for me so far as I was raised there and have a father that’s an agent that’s been helping me.I only invest in multi family there and like it quite a bit!

But, during the conversation,  I was informed that the property was in the seller's father and stepmother's name.

There's something to be said for going passive when you're ready...and the stress reduction that brings :) They're a great planning tool for sure.I found TICs and DSTs when doing research for a solution for my father who was in the hotel business and trying to find a tax favored exit strategy at retirement. 

@Robert FerrellMy father-in-law happens to be a contractor, and has told me personally he hates flippers.

I'm a husband and father of two.

The guy who came to see my father was selling plots of land a bit up the mountain.

My father lives in Helotes, and I was recently there and had the chance to meet with a real estate investor/agent who owns 10 units as a buy and hold investor. 

I invest on the other side of the 264 close to newburg rd.My fathers a realtor and has helped me buy the three 6 units that I’ve purchased.
