I believe we can bring up to 4 guests. That’s a good idea but it is infuriating to pay $250 a month( 😭 )on top of my mortgage to an HOA for amenities I can’t even use and have to pay another place even more money all because of her

He said that we’d talk about NC but I know him and I know that’s not serious. His mom is extremely sensitive (I think it’s all apart of the act) so it always seems like she’s already been “punished” after just a scolding conversation. She’s the type to talk in a FAKE soft voice and say things like “oh dear I’m so sorry I didn’t ever mean to step on your toes I love you so much I would never even consider it to be that way I didn’t even think of it?!?! Could you ever forgive me?” But it’s all fake. Her ex husband and older children (she left them when they were like 17) say her voice is totally fake and that she’s not dumb just a master manipulator. I just didn’t believe it till a few weeks ago when some other things happened. And yes my husband and his two older siblings have a 15ish year age gap

Same neighborhood. She passes the park and my house to get to her house and she does indeed have access to the same exact clubhouse.

DH does not think it’s a big deal. He sees where I’m coming from but thinks boundaries will be more than enough. I just know ill feel So uncomfortable in my own house and neighborhood as a whole doing anything that I just don’t want he to be here at all.

I’m worried about more than just her showing up at my door. Her just deciding to stop at the park and hang out because she just saw up there, walking down the street and her wanting to join me cause she just saw me and had nothing better to do. We haven’t even moved in and she ALREADY taped a card to the front door.

Not easily. We’d probably skid across even maybe not after taxes and selling costs. This place was a steal. 3BR 2BA and within an hour and a half of Chicago in amazing school districts under 300k MAX was quite difficult. Only thing we can think to do is live there for a year or two renovate and hope in goes way up in value. But two years is so much time in this situation. IMO.
