My brother owns our house..
He bought it with money my mom
set aside for me to get stable housing.
Well it wasn't set up right and it all went to him.
We have been struggling with money. There was
a bill he said, this is in an email, that he'd pay all
but $50 since he viewed that as "extra" if we got
rid of the cable for a year. We got rid of the cable
but there was still about a $200 balance.
We have about $80 left then its paid off..then the real
monthly bill will be like $60 and thats just for internet.
We are trying to pay on our cell bill. next pay check it
will be all caught up.. for a few days..
My brother wants $500 for rent...more or less putting
back money into the house. He has stopped repairs
untill we start giving him money. We have a huge hole..
picture will come later... in our kitchen ceiling from our
upstairs bathrooms' pipes burst. But now we have 2 new leaks.
Its right above our stove and is causing the house to smell.
I hate it.. As far as a lease...there is none. There are emails of
arguments and agreements and most is back and forth and alot of
this well if you do this... I'll do this but never happens on his part.
Last night my mother in law who was trying to help us with him,
and got pissed off so she washed her hands of it, said out of the blue he
emailed her. He said that he was thinking of shutting off the water and
electricity.. and in the state of Indiana that is against the law...
So I've come up with a plan but I am just afraid that it won't be enough.
Then earlier today he texted me...saying I have till the end of the month
to pay for Feb. and March.. I can't come up with $1000 on my own...
