A guest room can quickly become a source of family tension when no one agrees on when the «guest» is actually leaving. First of all, I feel that both sides have their own rights. For instance, the married couple. I can imagine how happy they must have felt when they were able to afford their …

Homeowners overprice their property in order to afford a new and improved house, until friend decides to put them in their place: ‘You can’t have everything you want’
Is it the friend’s business? Probably not. Can we blame her? Not really. Have you ever sat with a friend and had to listen to them rant about something in their life that just didn’t sit right with you? And the more they talked, the more you realized how out of touch they are, and …

Daughter refuses to sign new property documents with parents after discovering they changed the terms without her: ‘They shifted the majority of the risk onto me’
Do you need another proof of why you should never mix family and business? Personally, the closest I have ever gone to mixing family and business was when I worked for my dad in the summer before my senior year of high school. It was two months of joining him for an 8-hour day in …

48-year-old mother forces 18-year-old son into co-signing the mortgage on the house she’s buying with her boyfriend, using money meant for her son’s college fund: ‘My dad gave me 1k for school and she’s using it for the down payment’
18-year-olds should not be financially responsible for their parents’ mortgage under any circumstances.

HOA fine couple for having two chairs on their porch, but there is no rule against having an “obnoxious” 7-foot inflatable lawn decoration: ‘[It] resulted in a rules change’
Oh, HOAs. Mostly hated, rarely loved. They were created to help keep neighborhoods looking nice and have a community living in peace.

If you’re going to give a family member a large financial gift, you can’t dictate what they do with that money. You can advise them all you want not to blow five figures on online sports gambling, but if they’re determined to do so, they will do it. If you’re loaning money to a close …

60-year-old mom pressures 25-year-old daughter to keep living at home indefinitely because she thinks renting is a waste of money: ‘My 32 and 35-year-old siblings have rented’
For most young adults, living at their parents’ house is cheaper than renting. Even if their parents are charging them a couple of hundred bucks a month in rent, that’s not comparable to a $2000 one-bedroom apartment in price.
