If so then passive rather than active investing will be key and that takes you back to the classes of passive opportunities using them to pay bills while you develop your next "thing".

@Joe Splitrock at the end of the day it is all about being able to pay your bills.

Definitely a good example of the power of documentation.

The thing is, if the other side isnt rented and my personal bills also go up about 800 due to losing the assistance etc.

Rented one for $625 to a regular tenant renting the other one for $550 to a person that will use it as an airbnb (I'll keep everyon posted on this)We did some fixes to the 2 non-remodeled not as heavy as the others (painted walls, fixed things that were not working) rented one at $695 all bills included and have a potential lead at the same price.

Supply/demand and effective purchasing power are what I look at for location trends in our area.

How would you go about this situation on getting their names on the utility bills?

I am tired of the maintenance of it and the constant sprinkler issues to repair, not to mention the water bill in our drought afficted area.

Proposal: 60/40% (me 40) ownership in all properties in exchange for me bringing all taxes current, maintain grounds and pay all taxes going forward.What items would you include in the purchase agreement/bill of sale?

., do they manage the entire process and bill you on top of the contractors bid for the work?
