My mother and father FINALLY retired this year at 78. 

Both my grandfather and mother would have died in a hospital if someone didn't catch their errors.So many things to think about but here are some of my thoughts on the subject.

My stepmother's mother had a boyfriend at the time.

You may pull some heart strings with concerned mothers and that might be all you need to get a sale.Be careful, a few other easy and cheap rehab decisions and you'll be fast on your way to a "green" property. :)

My mother lives in Warren. 

@Vasilii BabanHave you looked at a SFH with mother-in-law suite?

Purchase price: $715,000 Cash invested: $530,000 The house has a mother in law unit, and a main house.

Let's say it was Monday through Wed in the office and your mother lives nearby which is where you would be staying on Monday and Tues nights.

I pulled out 146K and I used the money to buy a primary house with a mother-in-law suite in 2018 for 603K in Hawaii.

I and my step-mother are partners in one residential rental property 50/50.
