We know it’s a rocky situation but 1. If the house continues to be disregarded it’ll be worthless (and probably condemned) by the time his parents die. 2. His mom won’t leave. It’s super frustrating and something all the siblings have been annoyed with. His brother tried a couple years ago to get her to move out and live with him and his wife. She refused. Us living there with her will mean she’s well taken care of for the rest of her life. 3. It’s a prime location for a major city so finding a job will be incredibly easy living there. And going back to school while working will also be very easy. 4. It has really good schools and 6 bedrooms so if we ever decide to have kids there’s plenty of room for everyone.

In terms of why the dad wants to sell. He hates the mom. I think in large part it’s a way to slight her because the house is paid off. The apartment pays for taxes on the house. So there’s really no reason to sell but he’s adamant and has done some not so nice things to the mom to try to get her to sell.
