Irrevocable trust, duplex. Boston suburbs. They have had the home since 92. All they have to their names is the house and about 25k. We pay all the

Bills for the house.

We are on second floor(2.5 bed), parents on first( 3.5 bed). Both floors are about 1000 sq ft.

Idea is inside the apartment add stairs going down to 2 of the bedrooms on the first floor and removing the doors so those bedrooms are only accessible from upstairs. No heating or electric will change.

This will give my family the space it needs. Then I can take alittle from their living room and the half bedroom so they will stay with 2 bedrooms living room and kitchen.

this will need to come out whenever we decide to sell since it’ll be a janky setup for anyone buying this duplex.

I’m figuring Im pretty much lighting 15k on fire. Would you do it ?

Boston is crazy expensive we want to move but parents want to stay so this is our solution. Thoughts?

We are also on septic and any changes / additional bedrooms will call for a new system
