I feel you. I'm older but just as fucked. My parents bought my childhood home in 1986(i was 6 months old) for 85k dollars. In 2014 my mother (my father died in 1999) offered to sign the mortgage and house to me.

Somehow I don't know how but impressive my no other manged to lower the value to 75k. I refused the offer.

The house was originally a 1920 hunting cabin. It was in a rural are and not well mentained. Last i checked it was selling 400k...i don't know if people are knowledgeable or optimistic... Either way the house is stupidly valued...?
