My own mother is 80 and I was trying to imagine her in this same situation but you know, I just couldn't.  

Even if now I know the daughter is taking responsibility for her mother, how much legal bidding power does the notarized sheet even have?

All but one, Sarah, have done so, but in her case, she just can't bring herself to sign the documents because she is overwhelmed with grief at having lost her mother a few years before, and fond memories of all the family gatherings that have taken place in the house over the years.

I was asleep in the morning until my mother woke me up and told me what happened.

I do have 3 in Naples, FL but have a good handyman and long-term tenants (10+ yrs in 2 of them) and I go down there several times a year because my winter home is there and my mother and my in-laws are there.

The mother is in the hospital and it's not looking like she will make it much longer.  

I am helping my mother install a backsplash in her kitchen and I had a question.

For instance, I can search properties with the phrase "mother in law suite" and it will show all properties with that phrase in it's description.

Here are some of these excuses:1) I don't have enough energy (as i struggle with a chronic medical condition...)2) I don't have enough time (because I am a young mother of two children...)3) I don't have enough money (because though our savings are growing steadily, it is not enough to do a deal on my own...)4) I don't know enough (at least it seems little relative to the information out there...)So now, Brain, listen well: These 'excuses' listed here are precisely the reasons you NEED to get good at this, and quickly too!

@Steve Vaughan  I think this really depends what area... as in some areas HUD will be almost all single mothers with Children and then the dads coming and going.. it can make for a pretty interesting PM challenge.. collage kids don't have hud usually.. we had a few hundred hud tenants and by and large fine but I can't see how you could have 200 1 bds all hud.. that would be something.
