It's actually not the mom I'd worry about, but her kids....I've heard some pretty bad stories from my friends growing up.  

I've been browsing for an investor deal for the past few days having read several success stories here on BP.  

Success stories like yours are what keep newbies like myself grinding!

I plan on renting them out but I am not sure what really to expect (other than most of the horror stories I have heard regarding renting) I would like to continue purchasing more houses and flip some as well.

Love hearing success stories local, here in the Great Lakes state.

It sounds like a horror story but I learned a lot on invaluable lessons and didn't lose my shirt on the deal.

There are too many horror stories about money laundering, scams in the business realm and I do not want to be a statistic.

Protecting yourself on this kind of deal is a whole new different story (say they place funds in escrow or something).

I hear countless horror stories from those that have bought in rough areas and regret it.

I dabble in stocks atm but I have heard great stories of achieving FI through Real estate.
