I went home and was thinking how is anyone going to let a 19 year old kid invest their life savings.

The intense intellectual dishonesty of all this is that we forget to teach kids that there are 5 professions if that that are worth going into debt for…We are enslaving kids to the banks and the feds – disgusting!

K Thanks everyone for all the tips, the property i'm looking at is owned free and clear.

The second is $1500 down to help them get across country (ALWAYS ASK HOW MUCH THEY HAVE TO HAVE IN POCKET FOR THEIR NEXT STEP - USUALLY THEY'LL TELL YOU AND TIP THEIR HAND TO THEIR LOWEST SALES PRICE!)

If it's an investment property & you want to make it really interesting....separate the land & home @ the time of purchase.Own the land in another entity (or by your kids)now you lease it back....you get the depreciation of the 'improvement' (home) & you get to take the land lease deduction, esp worth it if the land is a significant $ value as per the assessor.Around here we found land values can be high because of the larger tracts of land.

Great tip on the keywords; didn't know that existed.

We live in a very tight knit area, I'm just the new young kid on the block, literally.

The kids are thriving in their new environment and they don't want to move.
