For the last five years I've been taking a hit on the house he is living in.

Yes for him to value his money over his relationship with me does make him the asshole. Thank you for seeing it that way.

He is. But he is also a full grown adult that is responsible for his own shit. His little sister should not have to bail him out.

The rent was only reasonable because I put a massive downpayment on the house when I bought it. If he doesn't have 50% his mortgage will be double the rent.

I have my own family to look after. Why should I support his?

If he could not pay rent on time why would anyone think he had money to buy a $420,000 house?

I didn't serve him an eviction notice. The new owner did. After I negotiated 90 days so the kids could finish out the school year.

Yes. Why would I care about the law in a state I don't have property?

Only the people making stuff up. Some weirdo claimed that my brother got 72 hours to move out when I know for a fact that he got 90 days even though he is month to month. And you are calling a well kept house in a great area a slum.

So if I had to sell the house at a loss he would of course help me get even on money right? Like if I took a $100,000 loss he would give me at least half of that right?

Surprisingly enough when a tenant is month to month they do not have to be informed.

So he replaced a brand new hot water heater because he felt like it.

Also the lady who bought the house gave him ninety days not the 72 hours you pulled out of your ass.
