she built it and will come out 150,000 cash if she sells.

If she can't afford it, then she can't afford it...she will have to sell, and live somewhere that she can maintain on her own...If not, you will never be able to have your own future.

Neither she should sell her property nor she should live alone in this age
After all she is mother of you all whome she has given birth and brought you people up . What you all are now is due to her only , howcan you all leave her alone when she needs you people the most. I think your sister should shift to her place. Or she can come to your place and live with you after giving her building on rent and your sister's husband can look after that property in her absence

The only thing that I can suggest is that your mom do a refinance of the home. This usually drops down the monthly payment. If it comes down to that she can not continue to pay even that. Then she really should consider selling the property and moving to a rented apartment or even an elderly community apartment complex.

your MOTHER, that raised you? is 79 and can't afford the place she had built? Why can't one of the siblings move in with her? Why does MOTHER have to get the shaft end of the deal? If she lives next to daughter, why does daughter not move in? Why put your MOTHER through the heartache of losing something precious to her......you-all have your own lives to live....she's 79 years old.........exactly how much of the rest of your life is she going to be alive? Does it even matter? She's your MOTHER! She gave to you-all....give to her....

well maybe she could come and move in with you or someone that you and her really trust it just cant be some random person or you can just let her do what she wants if she wants to stay in her home let her do that but it probably be best if she stayed with a relative so they can keep a good eye on her

why did she buy it if she cant afford it? Get the mortgage annulled or something on the grounds that she has alzehimers.
