They arrested her a month ago for drug charges and now she is out on pretrial release to her parents.

Trying to figure out how to deal with a home I will soon have under contract in Connecticut.I live here in Dover, De and I recently had one of my direct mail recipients call me about a property he has in New Milford CT . 28 Maple Drive New Milford CT 1311 sq ft2 bd 1 bthSingle family homeNew roofFull basement Big shed attached to home2 car garage0.49 acresNo foundational issuesSits 2 streets from a lakeHas some broken Sheet RockNeeds new furnaceHouse is outdated/ needs cosmetic repairsHouse was previously owned by the sellers parents and they have since passed.

I was refering to homes or houses as we all have one and our late parents property.

Remember you don't have to own a property to control it.

My parents live in Danbury, CT, which has a pop of around 100K but there's a lot going on there.

If you were private money you might get 6-10% and have no control and not learn anything.If you want to make it work and be a true "1/5 partner" than do 1/5 of all the work.  

There just is not the same amount of control and it is a pain when something goes wrong if the property is hours and hours away.

If you are the landlord then you control the terms of the rental agreement. 

But you can't control everything. 

To me its just a function of the overall socal market - no rent control, proximity to lax jobs, etc.
