Excess amounts received from a sale are a contingent liability as well as a cash asset until any statutory waiting period expires, form a borrower to bring claims, it's a hold your breath, they might not inquire about what we got, then, wheeew, now it's all ours without any problems.

Not only will you be buying peace of mind but you'll gain a valuable resource to bounce all of your questions off of.

Peace of mind is priceless.And don't mention your wedding to your tenants.Congratulations and good luck!

That way I am breathing air from behind me, instead of the air from in front of me where I am painting.

If you don't mind me asking, how much cash did it take for him to leave peacefully?

Many people sleep on their sides to mimic the fetal position but the problem is you toss and turn because pressure is put on the shoulder.With a motorized bed you can elevate the legs which takes pressure off of the spine and back and with the upper body elevation you keep reflux from happening from the stomach into the throat which also helps the sinuses drain properly instead of pool and swell the turbinates at night causing congestion and difficulty breathing.The zero gravity position from a motorized bed mimics the fetal position but opens up the lungs for better breathing and keeps the acid down in the stomach plus since you are not on your side the pressure is not on the shoulders.When you first try it there is some getting used to as your body has been out of whack for so long.    

Do this for peace of mind, not because you want to define your "partnership" in any way.With $150k in cash, I'd find one financed Buy and Hold property and use the remaining money to finance a flip.

I say no problem, peace.

While it might cost a bit more, it's worth it for the peace of mind. 

Also, I think in 10-15 years the area might see some good appreciation, not holding my breath though.
