I no longer have to commute during rush hour.I have the freedom to spend lots of time with my wife and child.

And fortunatly Im an only child still not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing.

Or child support lien?

She has a child.

I feel even more uncomfortable with the situation because he has told me that the girlfriend is pregnant with his child.

You may not count pay from a new part time job if they have no history of part time income or child support being received on a 20 year old college student may drop off at 21, so that income is not expected to continue and it would not be counted.The amounts available to these students probably come with strings attached, most likely their grades must be acceptable, if they end up on probation funds could be at risk.

I am still undecided.

A financially distressed seller can get into all kinds of trouble which could result in having additional liens come against the property (back property taxes, irs liens, child support, water/sewer, etc), or they could lose the property altogether by foreclosure.

I am going to treat this 10,000 day old (DOM) listing like it's my first born child!

Many families need to be in walking distance to a school due to circumstances.For the right tenant (ie someone who needs their child close to school) they would pay more for the proximity.Many families struggle getting their kids to and from school and want their JH kid to walk to school (or ride a bike) and get home by themselves especially if they perceive it to be safe.Here are a few ideas to gather more information to help your decision making:#1 I think speaking to a few families who have kids in the area may give you a great idea of the value they would perceive in being close to that particular school.#2 You could also observe what it is like before and after school.
