Anticipating new purchases

I currently have an above the garage apartment that I have rented out for 4 years. My father has had low income properties since the mid 1980's. He now is aging past being able to manage them. I am looking to purchasing them from him. Looking forward to gaining more wisdom from others.

    Welcome, Tricia! Sounds like you already have solid roots in real estate with your rental and your father's long-term experience. Taking over his properties could be a great opportunity to expand while keeping the legacy going. As you transition into ownership, especially with low-income housing, keep an eye on maintenance costs, tenant stability, and any deferred issues he may have let slide. It’s also a good time to evaluate how you want to operate, whether you’ll self-manage or bring in help.
