But I know a child needs to have Income to open a Roth.

I own a rental in Colorado but my parents have always rented it so I would still call myself a beginner, especially in the property management side. lolLooking to purchase some homes around Charleston and Summerville and always looking for a good deal to go bigger and get into multi-family units as well.

I have the opportunity of a parent who has offered to purchase a house in cash and allow me to make monthly payments to them to slowly purchase the home from them at 0%.  

I currently do not owe a house, but my parents have thought about doing a HELOC (home equity line of credit) to help me buy a side-by-side duplex.

She said their parents would be paying the rent.

Students can have parent guarantors and often have lower and more manageable per person costs.

We took our child with us looking at properties.

My parents didn't come with me, just me.

Then I got my license and my parents said I could drive to the store on my own.  

Unless their parents taught them differently, or they educated themselves on financial independence, they will continue holding this attitude toward money as they age and advance in their careers.
