Is it normal for siblings to be hyper jealous of you?

Really? My brother and I both built our houses. We live in different states and no one was asking for updates. We just saw each other’s new homes during routinely planned visits.

Really? When my family visited they walked the new house at various stages of construction. We talked about plans, next steps, building phases. Again, doesn’t sound like some families are very close if you don’t talk about a major financial undertaking.

Umm no. Your family is just very emeshed. Yuck.

I come from an enmeshed family. What pp described is a supportive family who understands what a big deal it is to build a house. They showed interest and listened because it is important to pp and they are a good family. My family wouldn't even come to the housewarming, but would take the fact that I built a house to mean I have "extra" money that should go to them.

People who are into houses? Better than the big reveal flopping when your sibling wasn't actually that impressed with your wealth. Op is mad she didn’t get the reaction she wanted from a sibling she doesn’t like and isn’t close to. Oh well.

Have you ever built a custom home? Obviously not but people in my family do.
