brought to you by the every dooll app
start budgeting for free today so my
question is um should me and my husband
do rent to own on my in-law's house
while they live there
no while they live
there yes so why would you rent someone
else's house while they live there well
we would so we would be in the top half
of the house and they would be in the
bottom half of the house oh it'
basically be like you know we each have
our own
separate yeah no don't do that what is
the benefit here are they cutting you a
crazy
deal so um basically it's a it's a
family property and you know me and my
husband would like to purchas purchase
it from them at some point so what does
family property
mean um the property was given to them
by um his grandfather
and um it was meant to be for us or for
for him so will it go to you guys will
it be inherited by your
husband
um
so they are also in a little bit of a
sticky situation with some other debt
and stuff too so I don't know if that
would end up coming to us or not they're
in a sticky sit situation with what with
some other debt and oh other debt
basically yeah all right so is this is
this property an unusual property and is
it like a bunch of acreage
or um I mean it's a it's a house they
built and it's I mean it's 17
Acres uh um and like I said it's in the
area the Family Y is
in
and okay here here's your problem all
right you guys
are trying to do 703 different things at
one time and it's not going to work and
here here's what's happening all right
the parents in- law have been
irresponsible gotten themselves in debt
and they need the income that you would
be giving them to rent and so you're
doing it to do them a favor you're also
trying to honor grandfather's idea that
your husband would end up with the
property and yet you've still got to
turn around and buy the property instead
of just end up with it that wasn't
grandfather's idea he left it to his son
he didn't make him buy it now his son is
trying to not do that with his own son
am I missing
something no yeah I mean so we're trying
to honor grandfather we're trying to
help your parent you're trying to help
the in-laws who have been irresponsible
by paying them rent and um and you're
going to be in a miserable living
situation all to try to keep everybody
happy but you and your husband no don't
go do this I mean it is it is really
important to us too and if we can help
kind of help them out now I guess their
goal is that they can sell the house to
a uh used price yeah so what is the
property
worth um we a lot of the number that has
been thrown out is like around 500,000
okay let's just pretend it's worth
500,000 for a minute what do you guys
what do you and your husband
make um I think he's gonna
be making about 990,000 this year and
then I'll probably be making about 45
okay so you have a $135,000 household
income you can afford a half a million
dollar house just buy the
house so we actually just talked to a
lender and they said could be a gr for
about
400,000 okay um how much money do you
guys have
saved we that's the other thing to is we
don't have because we just got married
like a year ago so we only how old are
you
too um he's 21 and I'm 22
the weak cannot help the weak Only the
Strong can help the strong you are too
weak to help
them you are not in a good you're not in
a good enough financial listen you do
whatever you want to do you called and
ask my opinion my opinion is I would run
from this like my hair was on fire
because these people are irresponsible
they're going to end up with judgment
leans on this house and they're going to
be unable to give you the house or
transfer it to you because they're not
going to pay their bills and they're
going to get their butts sued because
they're going to continue in their
pattern of irresponsibility and you
sweet little 21 year olds are trying to
help these grown adults who are doing a
piss poor job of running their lives and
they're going to screw over their own
kids accidentally in the process please
run from this please so here's an
alternative you guys go rent somewhere
on your own while building your own
fincial Foundation go have a life and if
one day you inherit this thing that's
great or later on if you want to help
them fine but not multi-millionaires
that and you're you're 21 years old
you've been married 10 seconds and
you're not in a position to go help
these grown-ups who have been
irresponsible you're not strong enough
quit doing this and you're going to end
up in the basement of people paying them
rent they're going to screw you over
accidentally because they don't know
what the crap they're doing they can't
find their butt with both hands and
they're going to cause you guys to dra
to drag be drugged down with them please
don't do this please they don't mean to
but they're
screw-ups and they're going to and
they're doing this to their own kids it
aggravates the crud out of me don't
people don't screw over your own kids
with your irresponsibility don't do it
and and please don't do this they're
going to end up with this property
clouded on the title with something
because of the way they're acting and
then you're not going to be able to get
the property that you signed up that you
thought you were getting in a rent to
own crappy deal please just go rent you
something and let these grown-ups muddle
through their mess and maybe the
property will come out the other side of
it maybe it won't you're not in a
position to buy it if you call me up and
you were 32 and you had 3,000 30 or 40
or 50,000 bucks laying around and you
wanted to put a down payment and go buy
the house we can talk about that but
you're not in that position you're too
you're not in a strong enough position
to be of help to them and you're going
to go do it anyway even though I'm going
to tell you a thousand times not to do
it I can tell there's no stopping you
