Husband and I moved into brothers house 9 yrs ago, he was disabled and a vet. We lent him over $40,000. to renovate the house. Replaced the whole well system, replaced the roof and anything major you can think of, septic pumps, etc… He past away two and a half yrs ago. I paid the mortgage payments for a year and a half to keep out of foreclosure with promise from probate lawyer that we would get back all the money as long as I had the receipts, I do. But when they did title search they found out he had a $999,000. judgement against him. Lawyer told me, we weren’t getting our money back. We are devastated and have to move into low income housing. We got behind on our electric trying to keep up the mortgage, $3000.+ and they now want to charge me a $600.+ deposit before we move the electric. Movers want $1500. – $1,800. to help move our heavy items. We are in our 70s and hate asking for charity. We appreciate any help and hope to be able to pay back as soon as we can.
