My adult daughter (mid 30s) and her husband bought a house and asked me to give them money for it. I found a house for them and helped them with initial conversations with the realtor,, went to the showing of the house with them and even spent time getting them out of a contract they shouldn’t have signed. I said I wasn’t in the position to give money but was willing to co-sign a loan or help them in other ways , such as spending over 2 hours helping them select a homeowners insurance policy. Her husband’s parents are very wealthy and gave them a large cash amount and a personal loan for the house. They live in another country 8,000 miles away and come to the area intermittently . I live less than a mile away from my daughter and the new house. She won’t let me come over until his parents do because they gave money and I didn’t. I guess my efforts account for nothing compared to cash. I told her that’s fine if that’s what she wants. I feel this is punishment and not sure how to take this. This came up because I was going to drop a check off of hers that came in my mail and she said no. Opinions?
