The property was owned before foreclosure by mother of daughter( my ex-wife divorced in 1973).

I think the square footage is way under quoted since the previous owners converted an attached garage to a master suite and built a mother-in-law suite in back of the detached garage. 

His apartment burned down Thursday and he’s homeless with his mother.

As a busy mother, it is challenging to "drive for dollars" are there any databases that contains information on houses that are for sell, and interested investors? 

My mother in law is a landlord and she is always trying to ward me off from going down REI, but I can't ignore some of the benefits that come from this area of investing (I like tangible things).I will likely see about joining a local networking group and hopefully finding a mentor, but I'm not really sure what I could offer them to "make the trade" for their time/knowledge, but I suppose I will find out!

Our personal property has a mother-in-law 2/2 we rent out and between them all we don't pay a mortgage.

Hey guys, I am in the finishing steps of purchasing my FIRST rental property (a duplex with a mother in law suite in the back yard).

Having your mother co-sign does not benefit you in regard to buying another home down the road. 

The Short: Looking at a cash out refi on two single family rental properties to use as a down payment on a commercial property.The Long: My father passed away two years ago leaving my 80 year old mother with about 112K in debt.

Just when you think you have  handle on the various types of RE deals out there another one comes your way you don't know how to handle.Okay so I have Ted and his mother Chelsea.
