BIL wants his house back

[Oscar's mum]

I am so frustrated. We rent BIL's house from him and have done since I was 5 months pg with Ozzy. We asked if this would be able to be a long term arrangement and was assured that it most definately could be. At the time BIL was getting married and had moved in with his fiance but that all turned sour and they have now divorced and he wants his house back!:banghead:

What is really annoying is he wants his house back before x-mas or more precisely in about 1 1/2 months. That wouldn't normally be a problem except for the fact that this bub is due just before x-mas and I have a low lying placenta which stops me from lifting alot (this includes not being able to lift DS or it causes more bleeding). How the hell am I going to move house!

We have 2 options one is trying to get a loan on a house or renting another house. Either way we have to move.

Okay that's my vent:mad:

[draught]

Vent away - that is terrible timing!!! I hope you find something - and that he realises how bad his timing is and helps a LOT with your moving!

[angcaltam]

You poor thing. Just make sure you let him know exactly how bad of timing it is. You don't do that to your family especially when you take everything in to consideration like your condition. People like that make me mad ! ! !:mad: :banghead:

Good luck with the move, I hope you find something fast.

Lots of :hugs: & :kiss: coming your way.

Keep us posted.

Very unfortunate timing.
Although you have been lucky to be able to rent his house.

In the future, EVEN with family members, get a formal agreement. it saves falling out over un expected changes.

Can you find a place to rent before the baby is born, and your brother in law lives there and when the baby is born .. you swap!

Sorry you are having a rough time. It makes it so hard when it's family you have to deal with. Placenta previa sucks, PM me anytime to chat.:hugs:

We were doing him a favour by renting his house:mad: He would have lost it in the divorce if we hadn't been renting it!

[MonkeyMum05]

Oh, that sux big time!
Is he a reasonable guy? If you talked to him, could he possibly give you 6 months or something, and rent a place in the meantime?

I hope that he reconsiders, and it works out well for you guys.

If he is a decent enough person then he will either help with the move or help pay for a removalist. Its only fair due to your condition and you are family. Get your husband to explain to him about your condition and if he dosent offer his help then ask him.

Isnt there a saying "never do business with family"

oh that so sucks hey.. my aunty did that to us, promised us we could rent her house for at least 2 years, possibly 4. Anyway... 3 months later, she broke up with her guy and wanted her house.. we shared for about 3 months till my parents bought an investment home for us to rent.. (they then sold theirs, went to live with mum's mum, then moved down to their house after we had it 18 months rent free)

so isi it possible for him to let you share for awhile till after bubs is born?
