Hello to all my fellow Bigger Pockets people! So I don't know if what I want to do is actually possible or if I'm missing a few things before I can actually get started. I'll give you guys a breakdown of the situation and if you guys can help fill in the gaps or any helpful tips that would be awesome. My parents are currently renting the apt they live in. I want to buy a 2/2 apt with a mortgage equivalent to their rent or close to it (1K) that way they could be comfortable in knowing they don't have to worry about the apt they will be living at for the rest of their time. I have enough money for a solid down payment but NOT the full 20% usually asked for without risking some of the emergency fund for the apt (I'm aware of PMI) The location of the apt will be in Hialeah, FL. But I feel like I have a few problems blocking all of this from moving forward right now. First, I lost my job due to the pandemic back in the start of it all. Luckily I've still been able to save (not much) but not dip into any of my savings. But my earned income is gone and on paper I'm afraid that wont work well for a lender. On top of that my father went through a medical problem and now isn't working due to it. But he will be collecting a disability check. My mother has quit her job (she didn't make much to begin with) to take care of my father. She also will be receiving a disability check. Both these checks will amount to more than any rent that would be in the area that I want to buy the apt in. So the mortgage will covered easily I would assume. They have no debt and my mothers credit score is in the 800s. I have very little debt and credit score is in the low 700s. I'm not looking for a cash flow deal here. I want this property to help them and also one day have it for myself when the day comes that they are no longer around. Appreciation and Equity are the goals for this deal. So what I'm trying to find out is if I can still make this happen somehow? I don't want to approach a lender yet without more information. I know location and Price range of the type of property that I want. But am I stuck here until I get a new job? I expect to be back to work by the time I'm able to get this property. Would getting a non-occupant co-signer be the only way to execute a situation like this?
