I'm a newb myself and from I just read, if I was in your shoes, I'd be would not be happy at all.

This should be considered before agreeing to step into the shoes of an heir. 

Put yourselves in the sellers shoes and help me (us) to justify selling to a wholesaler.  

A self storage building would also be placed on the property for tenants to rent.I am thinking of building in 6 phases because of the size of the project and town approvals.

You'd get into the details of who's paying what to whom during the negotiation and closing process, and this would eventually be spelled out on the settlement statement.The end buyer will also need to see the purchase agreement - they will step into your shoes (as the buyer) at the exact same terms you agreed upon with the seller, so they will need to know exactly what those terms are.

If I were in your shoes I would start taking people out to lunch every single day of the week and peppering them with questions.

Any preferences for cloud based document storage and sharing?

@Justin R.I have been on every side of this (lender and borrower) and I can tell you these are the considerations I would have if I was in your shoes:1) The biggest difference is control but control works both ways depending whose hands its in.

I agree with @James Austin, putting myself in your shoes, I would start out with some financial literacy fundamentals like Dave Ramsey's financial Peace University and then follow up with some fun and creative activities.

I better go get me a new pair of running shoes.
