In Quebec you can't evict tenants easily, the only way to do so that I know is if you retake the unit to live in it or for your parents/siblings.

So much disrespect thrown out towards Chicago and specifically the South Side of the city, I hope the numbers will change a few minds.In the words of a local developer I highly respect Leon Walker "the difference between Gentrification and Venture Development is INTENT” http://www.dl3realty.com/venturedevelopmentIf you are not in the City, you may not know there is a tremendous resurgence happening on the South Side of Chicago.As a native of Brooklyn, if you would have told me my neighborhood as a child in the 80s (Bushwick, Brooklyn, NY) would have turned into Million Dollar homes a on every block I would have laughed at you.

I still live at home with my parents and have no legitimate bills other than a gym membership and phone bill, so I am able to save approximately $2k each month.

I have a full time job as a dental assistant making around 35k a year after tax with 0 tuition debt, 0 credit card debt with 740 score (been building credit almost 2 years ) , no car payments, pay a rent ($400) to my parents every month, I save 75% of my checks and have about 25k ready to work.

I live in Emeryville but my parents live in Milpitas so could go down there if its a weekend. 

Don't think it's a good idea to mention passing of the parents.

If he's the only child, let her know what you're doing.

My parents' friends have already offered to finance a property for us, but I need to write a proposal for a specific property.

As I gain more experience in REI, I would also like to share the knowledge I would have gained to future investors, especially I would like to help empower people that might be struggling financially or people that come from a disadvantaged situation in life such single parents, orphans, etc.To have the financial resources and time to advocate for our planet, and help to make it a better place for the future generations to come.

Are your parents ok with that?
