If you have a valid reason that is forcing you to move, then sure you can get the loan right away.Fannie/Freddie/FHA/VA and other secondary market makers don't like for you to get OO loans and then not stay in the property.

I am currently evaluating a deal in BC that has 3 separate SFD and a equestrian facility and indoor riding ring.

Those are big holes in their education if they want to make real estate investing their main career. 

In house property management is not a money maker.

Existing monthly payment ~$1,950.00 - Deed in my nameMother has not been employed and has been a home maker for several decades.

Obviously take this with a grain of salt.What I've learned about recessions from those who have survived:- people lose their jobs and struggle to make rent/mortgage payments- people lose their homes due to inability to pay- lending constricts- buyers have a difficulty qualifying for loans or finding lending due to the constrictionSo what should we do....Sit on the sidelines and don't invest :)or....What I'm going to look for is the ability to buy properties that need rehab and the previous owner will sell to me on terms (seller carry, lease purchase, or lease option). 

That is probably true @James Makers I just have to be more creative at where to look for deals.

Take Auctions for example - people buy properties from auctions all the time site unseen without a solid idea of exactly how much it is going to cost to renovate.With wholesalers, the buyers can get a better idea about what exactly is going on inside the property from the numbers that the wholesaler *should* give them (take a look at BP's wholesale report maker for an idea of what I'm talking about - you can report exactly the categories and costs of rehab and projected profits).Thus I think is how you can remain an ethical wholesaler if you aren't a licensed agent since your buyer can simply check out Google Street view to "view" it with your numbers right next to them.

Would you recommend the deal makers membership or just the basic?

Indoor dogs are a definite NO, especially big ones.
