I am not a fire fighter or first responder but my father in law was a first responder (retired) and 2 cousins are active firefighters here locally, on in Santa Clarita, the other in the San Fernando Valley.

Even Ferguson has good areas as my father has property over there.  

Hi Biggerpockets Fam,My father and I just purchased an investment property - We hold title as Joint Tenants.I wanted to know, if my father passes away, does 50% of the property get reassessed?

“As a result, (the EquityBuild) investment program devolved into a Ponzi scheme: Defendants could only pay earlier investors by raising funds from unwitting new investors.”Led by a father-and-son team, Jerome and Shaun Cohen, EquityBuild and a subsidiary, EquityBuild Finance, have raised at least $135 million from more than 900 investors since 2010, according to the suit, filed in federal court in Chicago.

My father also has another property that I am a cosigner on, he tried to get a HELOC but was rejected due to low income so I'm wondering if I can come and qualify for the HELOC even if I just purchased another primary property?

The guy i might use for electrical works for his father who is a contractor.so if he does the work i can have it inspected and the inspector isn't going to care who did the work as long as it's up to code?

I'm surprised your father never raised the rent all these years". 

My Father (one of the 4) passed away years ago without any changes made to the trust.

Here’s the situation:My father owns a 2 Bds/2 Baths house (1190 sq ft) in Pasadena, CA.

But want to retain my Fathers' Prop 13 low Tax basis when transferring ownership under California Prop 19 im told by the County tax accessor i can what's the best type of loan to buy my Sister out.
