I am preparing to write a blog for BP on the mother of all Alternative investments.. the single best alternative investment for the under 35 crowd that are high wage earners..

At the end of 15 years, you will have paid your father $180,730. (20% down + interest + principal)That's just one option.As for your mother, maybe you could do a similar thing, though I don't know the best way to structure it while she has a mortgage already.

I am trying to help my mother sell her rental house. 

Little different scenarios, but one time I had a junky mother get a $280K judgment on her son who I had given a first position loan to.  

I was young and hungry for success, so my mother paid the then-$200 fee for me to go.

If you allow the single white mother this time, what happens when the African American tenant asks next week?

My mother in law, who is an agent listed the property on the MLS and assisted us with the process.

The person stated they wished to sell the home due to mothers medical bills.

As part of Medicaid planning, we recently created an irrevocable trust and placed my mother-in-law's two homes into it.  

My mother is part owner of a trailer park.
