If you want to give your mother a present that keeps on giving, give her an investment house. If you use 100 percent financing, the right investment house doesn't even have to cost you a lot of out-of-pocket money.

Benefits for You and Your Mother

• Helping your mother manage the property will give you a reason to go see her more often.
• Helping provide for your mother's retirement fund and possible future care can take away your worries.
• If your mother never needs to cash out or borrow money against the property, you can inherit a significant amount of appreciation.

Taking Title
You can either buy the property in both of your names, give her a quit claim deed to a property you finance, or put the property in a family trust.

Educate with Gifts
Give your mother information about real estate investing possibilities. You can give her books, DVDs, and recordings that you find interesting and informative. For some mothers, this knowledge may open a new interest in life. Also, your mother might have great credit and be able to help you buy houses.

Happy Mother's Day today and everyday!
