Side hustles, starting and executing his own business.  

I'd look into tenant laws for more specifics.That said, there are many investors who are successfully executing deals in the Bay.

From my 6 years of living in USA, my observation, I have realized that in American norms, parents' well-being in not their kids' responsibility.

I'm an executive creative director in advertising, having done agency life for 25+ years.

I know that you, like the rest of us, really want to have that American Dream for our families.

You'll want to understand what kind or notices and documents you need to get executed to either up their rent or turn the unit.Solid long term tenants are worth their weight in gold in my book so if theres a way to up the rent and keep them happy I's say thats the best route personally.

This is the American problem, we want but can't afford.I have purchased so many houses a year or 2 or 3 after the divorce.

Fortunately for Hunter lenders will hopefully stop this madness before he has an opportunity to execute on this transaction.

@Gaurav Vedi this is very thorough.Did you also evaluate the increased cost of compliance, admin, and time you will need to invest in executing setting this up and maintaining it? 

I would encourage folks to watch the American greed episode on Remington financial.. little different they took due diligence fee's  this company is taking money to bird dog deals for them. but it was proven that in almost 20 years Remington funded less than 12 deals and they took in 5k to 10k per client. made millions. this I see is somewhat of a parallel offer to fund the deals make the bar so high that no one ESPECIALLY a newbie can get over the bar..
