If they need money choices are reverse mortgage (not a recommendation, just an option) or sell.  

I work ~30 hrs/wk and make more $$$ than I would if I had a traditional FTE job.... but I cant obtain a mortgageWhat are some ideas other than a parent cosigning that I could explore for financing???

If a person already has land/lot through the Traditional SDRIRA, would the purchase of a mini travel trailer for that lot be allowed under the SDRIRA?  

This way I can get right into a cash flow situation, and have 5 years to refi the loan with traditional lending.2.

But those are not like traditional mortgages.

If you're looking for financial freedom, cashflow is your better choice.

If you think that is too much, then there are a lot of duplexes in Lakeland which is a good choice if the price is right.

My favorite quote from that book is"Anyone who dreams of an uncommon life eventually discovers there is no choice but to seek an uncommon approach to living it"  - Gary KellerTo be successful you can't just copy what someone else is doing exactly, and you don't need to come from wealth and connections in order to be successful in real estate investing.  

As an investor, I had a choice to list any way I desired and I never desired to use the MLS to list my units.  

There's no "rules" regarding who has to be on the lease, you can make your own choices but adhering to common practices is probably wise.
