<prompt> Human: Ok, so when my grandmother died she left my dad to oversee her estate. He was to sell the house and split the money between himself and his two brothers. It has been 7 years and he has not done anything with the house.My uncle recently bought a house using money he borrowed from retirement and is having trouble paying the mortgage. Now, he is threatening to sue my dad for his share of my grandmothers house. My dad wants to borrow from HIS OWN retirement fund to buy his brothers share. This is obviously stupid because he will pay tax on what he borrows AND it will put our family in a higher tax bracket. He says it wont have to pay additional tax because of his age 64. But I am not so sure. He is not retired. Of course, my Mom is totally against this because it is her retirement fund too and is threatening divorce if he takes away from their retirement. My dads overall goal is to rent out the house because he thinks it will be a good source of income after they retire. It is a three-bedroom ranch in a good location, near a medical school. My question is basically what is the best course of action or my dad? Should he sell or rent the house? Should he buy my uncles share or not approximately 35,000? Also any advice on how to talk to him would be useful. He is extremely stubborn and always thinks his way is the only right way. Any recommendations are welcome, feel free to ask questions.TLDR: My dad should have sold his mothers house years ago and invested the money but didnt. Should he sell it or rent it out? Should he borrow from his and my moms retirement to pay for his brothers share?  <response>: Well Id tell your uncle to go ahead and sue. 7 years is years longer than any reasonable timeframe to settle an estate
