[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, reading the OP and some of these comments, I can understand why people fall out with siblings over stuff like this.  My parents were specific in their will to avoid this sort of thing. Folks trying to itemize and place value on every littel thing. Personally, I would credit sibling the amount that he paid towards the mortgage - because he did create quity by paying it every month.  After he was reimbursed, we would divide it equally.  I know you are an IL and according to DCUM, you should not even be involved.  But I think it is NOT good for the relationship for folks to be nitpicking what the sibling did or did not do.  If he lived with them (even if it was rent free), he was doing stuff day to day just because he was there.  Don't belittle that.     [/quote]

+100. The sibling should be reimbursed from the proceeds for the amount of the mortgage payments. The arrangement for the sibling living with parents is off limits - it was between parents and that sibling, and that time is over.[/quote]

+200. This solution is fair and minimizes the itemizing and bean counting. [/quote]
