But now, the daughter wants the house and is refusing to pay taxes unless it is in her name.<\/p>\n<p>Read below for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/AmItheAsshole\/comments\/1nwlzs2\/aita_family_in_shambles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">full story<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>My father passed in 2021 at the age of 92. I was willed his home, along with all his assets.<\/p>\n<p>Quick backstory, in 2020, my eldest daughter and her newly married husband asked if they could move in with him, and due to COVID, I thought it would be a great idea.<\/p>\n<p>They can keep him company and save money as newlyweds.<\/p>\n<p>I would still cover all expenses. They didn\u2019t have to pay any rent, no utilities, nothing.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, they would just be responsible for their groceries, but my father mostly bought groceries, and they did the cooking.<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward to 2025.<\/p>\n<p>This woman\u2019s daughter refused to pay the taxes and their own utilities.<\/p>\n<p>I asked them to please start covering the taxes, which is roughly 7,000 a year, plus their utilities.<\/p>\n<p>They absolutely refuse.<\/p>\n<p>They said they would not contribute one cent unless I sign the house over to them.<\/p>\n<p>They now have a newborn and say I\u2019m the jerk.<\/p>\n<p>But she\u2019d rather use the money herself.<\/p>\n<p>My husband and I have our own home in a different city, and an 8-year-old.<\/p>\n<p>We would like to spend that money towards our home, vacations, and hobbies.<\/p>\n<p>I offered to put the house on the market and give them 250,000 to start anew, but they also refused.<\/p>\n<p>The current value of the house is estimated at 650,000 market value.<\/p>\n<p>Need advise.<\/p>\n<p>Seems like daughter needs to learn to stand on her own two feet.<\/p>\n<p>Stop playing nice, says this user.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-635183\" src=\"https:\/\/twistedsifter.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/lazy-load-0.7\/images\/1x1.trans.gif\" alt=\"Screenshot 2025 10 10 at 8.48.29 PM Woman Inherited All Her Late Fathers Assets, Including The House Where Her Eldest Daughter Lives.
