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.
