This is literally my landlord too. She's a nice lady, but she depends on my income to pay her bills...

She's sitting in a beautiful town on a property that could easily get over 1mil, probably 2-2.5, but instead I have to live in her garage that has a leaking roof she can't afford to fix... I imagine she's just holding on to it for her kids or something, but she'd be so much better off if she sold. Of course I'd get kicked out in an instant and be in deep shit myself, but that doesn't change what's best for her.
