Re: Just a curious answers

Hello Kaz
Thank you for replying
(There is no mortgage in the house )
I am absolutely 100% sure that the other sibling will not get jealous he will be happy if my daughter could have a house with the backyard just the way he have too...
There will not be any conflicts what so ever
Guaranteed
But as a mother I will feel kind of uncomfortable taking rent money from my own kids ....
I do not want them to struggle
I will feel Happy if I just let them live rent free until they find a home they can afford

Re: Just a curious answers

If you are able to allow them to live there rent free, you are sure it won't cause trouble with your other child and it gives you pleasure to do it - then do it.

You could charge them a nominal rent, then put it aside for them to use later. You could use that small amount for home repairs, property taxes, etc. Or let them live there free, but ask them to pay towards any home expenses (repairs, maintenance.)

But, it's your house, you can do what you want!

It sounds like you are a very caring mother, good for you!
