My husband and I bought the house he grew up in from his parents. I hate it here. There is still all kinds of junk from his parents and brother here. I've lived here for almost 4 years and it still doesn't feel like home. It needs so many renovations and I hate to even come home. My husband WILL NOT let us move! I have tried everything =(

There are a few things you can do. First, try telling him there is a huge amount of equity in the home and that if you sell you will gain a large some of money which in turn can be used to buy a nicer home in the same or better area. If that doesn't work. You can always refinance your home and cash out of your equity. This will help you pay for renovations and new decor.

Seems like you bought more than a house. You bought some old memories that are keeping you from moving forward.
Make a move in the right direction. Little by little, one step at a time. Or, just go ballistic and have your way. Which is it? I choose Ballistic..... lol

Move out. Your husband is still a kid. He has to decide
between his childhood and you. He's being disrespectful to
you. He shouldn't want for you to be miserable.
Give him the old untimatum. Tell him if you don't go to couples counselling, you're going to have to split. The counsellor will help
you two decide what's right for your relationship.
Good luck. I feel for you.

He's definitely attached to the house because of memories. Would you or him consider RENOVATING the place? Maybe that would make you happy. If it doesn't, talk to your husband about it!

Ok, tell him you'll stay IF all of the parents and brother's items are removed and then remodel and make it your own. Good luck.

Start acting crazy like you're seeing things - like ghosts. Once he tires of that he'll be ready to move.
Or better yet, cut him off from sex. Works every time.

Tell him if you guys don't move, you're leaving him and moving to your newly divorced neigbor, Mr. Fletcher's nicer house.
