Guess it’s the culture divide, but it stood out to me that your description makes it sound like it’s second nature to charge immediate family rent on a property you own. Quite bizarre.

Why is that “bizarre”? I have a $2600 a month mortgage and another $3K-$4K a year of fixed expenses on it. Am I suppose to let family stay there for free and just spend $40K+ a year on a place where I am not living?
I could sell it now and net $300K.
If he gets to a point where he couldn’t pay rent because of a systemic problem, I trust him well enough to know that he wouldn’t make me go through a long eviction process. He would have to move. But we would help him find sone place cheaper. No for logistical reasons, he couldn’t stay with us.
But my wife and I said, that once they move, we are selling the house. We do not want to be landlords.
