Should I not speak to my sister after this?

[Saju1]

My sister and I own a home, which we are currently selling. I was in labour while I have her permission t complete the forms for our solicitors. 4 months down the line, I decide to take a look at the documents and it appears all of the "profit" is going directly into her bank account.

We are due to finalise all papers in two weeks, so I have contacted the solicitors to have this amended. I asked my sister why she did that and she said that she will give me half the money after.

I am so angry with my sister for doing this, why wold she just pay me half the amount after, knowing that it can be done from the beginning?

AIBU to not speak to my sister?

YANBU at all. I think she has been very underhand in not speaking to you about it and the fact that she still wants all the money to go into her account raises red flags!

Well done for taking action and remember - trust no one, not even family.

Non issue. Easier to send in one go, surely?

Well, the solicitors are amending the instruction so it's not going to be a problem now, is it?

I expect that, as she was doing all the admin, it was simpler to just give her bank details rather than digging out yours as well and asking the solicitor to split it. But only you know your sister. I'd have no qualms about one of my siblings doing this, but I also know they're not people who would do a runner with my money. If there's a massive dripfeed coming that your sister has a long history of theft and deceit towards you, then I can see the concern, but otherwise it seems weird to stop speaking to her over this.

Tell me you didn't read passed the first paragraph without telling me you didn't read passed the first paragraph 😋

There's therapy for that level of trust issue.
