Do your parents have a cell phone?

In my parents' sink in their house I used the cheap generic liquid drain dissolver product they sell at WalMart (it seriously costs under $1.00 for the entire bottle) - after it sits one boils water and dumps it down the drain per the instructions and it works well. 

The home is in a good area close to a very good school that parents are fighting to get their kids in.

My parents 30 year fixed mortgage is currently at about 5% and they have been turned down for refinance due to their fixed/low retirement income.

I moved in with my parents to help them and rented the house out after the required FHA occupancy rule.

I had gone to several closings with my parents and had already closed several properties on my own before attempting a closing on my own.Bottom line: If you don't know what the hell you are doing, pay someone.

If the bathroom in question is close to the bedrooms and it is a family house, I'd do a regular tub with a shower as no parent will want to take the kids to the basement for baths (and kids are generally afraid of basements). 

The great investor, Thach Nguyen, lived with his parents until he had twelve rental properties under his belt.

Hey @Madigan Tumilowicz Congrats on your decision to invest out of state, been convincing my parents for the longest time and they finally trust me enough to start looking at Tennessee themselves!

Long story short, my parents just purchased a large home that we are going to live in with them for awhile, and I will be renting out the single family house that I live in now.For my next property, I would like to purchase a property and use it straight away as rental property.
