And her other 2 grandsons would be able to stay in the house with her too!! I wish we could get this off the ground!
They pay off the mortgage, but there is still taxes. Donations only go so far. Who pays the taxes next year, and the insurance? We really need to be SURE before we proceed. Is there any kind of trust fund to take care of Andrew? Any government departments paying for HIS home and board that could be used to pay the taxes and insurance. The TV people don't care about next year, they care about ratings. I keep thinking of that big HGTV DREAM HOME giveaway. I was looking at it. NOT ONE winner has EVER been able to keep the home. They all have to sell. So is it feasible that Jazz could sell this Makeover home if needed and purchase something she could truly afford? Would she need to? I just think we should be sure of all the future problems that could occur.
I am interested in this but am concerned as 'hope' is that we would just create a bigger burden for Jazz.(that's why I was wondering if there was a smaller community group of volunteers that might like to make this a project.....don't know how things work over there). Sorry being so far away there is not much I can do.
I really want this to work. I just want someone to be watching out for Jazz in this. Maybe the lawyers at Extreme Makeover have a form (with small print of course) that explains the ramifications of doing this.
I hope this comes off. How compicated it is trying to do a good turn!
:eek:who are yah takin about.At least it is not me:DQuote:
