Maybe she doesn’t want to.
Old folks get stubborn. I know, my dads 93, WWII pilot, and he’s stubborn as ever, why not, he fought for it. It becomes a pisser at times but you have to respect and accommodate your elders.
“Go someplace tropical”, yea, maybe, if that’s what she wants. If not, leave her alone.
End of story.
You always see some odd house in an industrial area where the owner refused to sell and now the owners can’t even give the property away. You feel bad for them, but once the majority of the owners have sold out and the project is moving forward with or without you take the money before it’s too late.
I understand the attachment to the house, but the neighborhood is gone now, and but it’s not like they’re offering her chump change...$600K is good money.
