[quote=Anonymous]No if you bought the house with the in-law suite available and could cover the mortgage then no. If they help with babysitting or housesitting or whatever then the extra utility cost is likely <100/mo especially if there is not a separate kitchen. In our situation we had to buy a specific house with an extra bedroom to accommodate MIL. She pays a flat rate and we cover everything- clothing, hygiene, food, her cat food and care, literally anything she needs. The house had to have a ground floor bedroom and bathroom because she cant navigate stairs. We went from looking for a nice townhouse with 2bed plus basement or 3 bed to needing a SFH with a ground floor bedroom and full bath plus an extra 2 bedrooms for us and our kid plus a home office because one of has to work at home everyday so she doesnt burn the house down.
