There are paying tenants on the third floor, my mother in law lives on the second floor, we live in the first.

I’m the olderst of 5 with a single mother and am looking to move my family out of our 2 bedroom apartment.  

Here’s my question: I’d be putting about 8k into repairs and such, if it were you, would you just treat it as a mother in law apartment as if renting it to my child or mother or claim everything as if it were a full rental?

I do research and analysis for my wife’s family’s business, and assist my mother-in-law in her brokerage/Realtor duties.

Their father had passed away recently and the mother was sent to a permanent nursing home.

So tell me how do you deal with the " hoarder " house that is owned by the deceased lady whose daughter lives in Florida and cannot afford to " deal" with her mothers home? 

I call him up, and another personal tragedy, his mother just had a stroke.

John doesn't pay any additional expenses ( the house used to belong to his mother and now non-profit organization owns it).

Based on comps in the area I believe the property value is between 145-155kYesterday the son of the owner of an identical duplex next door approached me to see if I would be interested in buying their mothers property, as she was in poor health.

Hi everyone,I have a property in California that my mother was living in.
