Me and DH currently rent, we were notified that we will have to move out by the end of this year as our landlord wants the house back, this is no problem as we were planning on buying this year before all this Pandemic situation kicked off.
Obviously now that's a bit difficult and we're not sure how long it's going to last. Therefore in order to save some more funds in case we need a bigger deposit, we are going to move in with my father.
He has quite a large house and me and DH and his kids will have our own rooms so they will still have privacy.
DHs ex is kicking off about this as she 'doesn't know my Dad' and thinks we should have our own space when the children are with us (which we will).
I could understand if we'd not been together long and my dad was a stranger but we've been married for years now and the kids know my dad and get on well.
And anyway, as said above his house is big enough to give us all our own space anyway.
If it weren't for this current situation we'd probably not even consider this but we want to buy asap and still this year if we can so that we don't have to find another rental in the interim and can save more toward a bigger deposit.
Are we unreasonable? We'd be hoping it was a 6 month max situation.
