Thank u guys for ur replies! I will contact him tomorrow and tell him.
Believe me when I tell u my reason for all parties have absolutely nothing to do with me feeling left out. I took myself out a while ago for personal reasons (that would have to be another post lol) I’m just aggravated at all the parties bc each one of my siblings own a house n none of them want ppl over bc of the infamous “cesspool “

So I have an interesting question: I have a SFH that I'm renting to my brother and his family. He was so excited when I evicted my last tenants a little over a year ago bc he really likes this house and wanted to live there. I gave him a bit of a break on the rent being that he's family n he pays faithfully. Now I'm having 2 problems: I don't know how to tell him that I need to raise the rent even if only $50. The other problem: he has people over every single Sunday. They aren't strangers or no one has complained but it's about 12-15 people each time. Those ppl happen to be my sisters n their kids. I never get invited nor do I care to go if I did but how do I handle this? I only know about the parties because they post all the pictures on Facebook otherwise I wouldn't even know so if it was a stranger who I was renting to I would never know. I don't know what to do
And please don’t tell me the old line “don’t rent to family members’’ as I already know but he was going through something at the time n I meant to help him (my nephew had cancer)
