I moved out of my old home, should I still pay rent?

It is wrong for her and your brother to ume you are going to continue paying when you no longer live there. There was an agreement when someone moved out that the house would be sold. They are short changing you by not living up to the agreement. If anything they should be finding another person to rent to and when the house finally does get sold somewhere down the line, you have rights to 1/3 of the money it sells for. You will be getting married and will have your own family responsibilities and should not have to take care of these two. Tell them to grow up and find a renter to make up your half of the payment that you are no longer responsible to do this. You could force them to sell the house which was the agreement but you are giving them the benefit of finding a renter instead. Do not forget your vested interest in this house to start with as well. Somewhere down the line when its sold, do not let them run off with the money saying you didnt live there. It was because of you they were able to purchase the house in the first place. If possible, make sure all is in writing. If they refuse, tell them then its time to sell the house. Do not let family take over your life just because you are the responsible one. They are responsible for their own lives. They have had vacations? and what have you had? That is BS I say.
