      they had an amical separation and he likes the tenants. They pay and take care of the property (he said they are clean, I guess that means also careful, take good care of it, would call if something is amiss instead of letting it deteriorate). He does not need to visit all the time, could ask if the ex is there (if that would be so terrible for him). if they have kids together they would see each other anyway.

    Loaning/Renting to family members or people you are close to is never a good idea because you will have regrets whenever you have no choice but to kick them out and loaning/renting to them makes it very hard to kick them out when the time comes.

      It can be fine as long as you are clear what the rules are and there is a contract in place. The problem he has there is no contract in place.
      He may have issues if they try to fight it when he tries to sell the property as they may start to make claims that they were actually paying the mortgage for him.

      I bought a rental house & rented it to my brother. All was fine for 3 years. He paid and he was neat, taking care of small repairs. Unbeknownst to me, he began doing drugs. Suddenly the rent stopped arriving, first late but then never. I it takes about 9 months to evict a person in California. I had to sell it. I had my own mortgage to pay. That was the 80s when interest rose to nearly 20%.
      So, I sold it quickly and paid capital gains. NEVER rent to a relative. My brother hit rock bottom eventually and we no longer speak.

Did we want to keep a house that we didn't want so that she could stay there?

    It is, however, one reason why I’d never rent a house from a single homeowner. They can do anything from have a change in life plans, like a financial epiphany, to losing their mind and you, as the renter, can have your life utterly upset my this.

    I would separate from the inlaws asap before things go south, and eventually they will. Obviously, the situation has been bothering him. Personal experience with wonderful inlaws.

    Offer them first chance to buy the house, if they can pay the rent i don't see why they couldn't afford a mortgage.

    The only thing that ties to you anyone for life is a child... all other things can be settle. If he has no children with his ex wife. Then he needs to sell or evict them. Either one..but they got to get out of his life.. He making good money , sound like he has no alimony payments.. he love his career.. it time to move on....from all of it.. Sell or Kick them out...just that simple...B1.

    Nothing wrong with helping family and friends. They do need help sometimes. Pluse don't let bad experience control our decisions. Never know who we might need. We are still in a PANDEMIC.
    LOVE IS THE WAY.

    What's a row house?

      Long, skinny house on a lot the width of a garage, in a row with other similar houses with the outer walls touching.
      Townhouses are like row houses, but each house in a row house is unique and can be torn down independent of the others, unlike a townhouse.
