Sisterly Bonds Tested: Family Drama Over a Free Townhouse!
In a tale of sisterly love put to the ultimate test, a woman’s generous gesture of providing her younger sister with a rent-free townhouse spirals into a family feud. The only condition was that the sister’s troublesome baby daddy was not to move in. But when the car parked in the driveway raised suspicions, the woman took matters into her own hands. A secret visit to the townhouse revealed the harsh truth – the baby daddy was living there. The ensuing confrontation led to a screaming match, an ultimatum, and a family divided. The question remains – was she right to invade her sister’s privacy, or did her sister break the trust by breaking the only rule given to her? Let’s see what the internet has to say about this…

“YTA. My mother tried this with my sister. She came in without permission or a 24 hour notice that’s needed by law. So my sister called the cops. My mother smugly sat there until the cops arrived. They informed my mother that my sister was a tenant despite no rental agreement and no money being paid. The moment she allowed her to live there she became a tenant. My mother got a huge wake up call. Most states have the same or similar laws. If you don’t live in the US you might not have the same rights, but if you are in the US then yes she is a tenant with tenant rights. Just like any rental you can require permission for anyone living with her and you can enforce that but you should have waited until your sister was home and let you in or give her a 24 hour notice.”

NTA. Your “sister’s house” is s bit of a stretch. It’s yours and your husbands that you’re allowed her to live in with a pretty reasonable stipulation. Every reputable landlord asks if you have a record, and you were assured he would not be living there. Going in to someone’s house without permission can be a violation of trust, but at the same time, she destroyed the trust between you by lying.
