Thanks for the reply. Yes. He put down approx 21k initially. I have given him approx 15k. My issue is, he was to provide renovation funds and labor. He never did anything so, to protect my father, since it was all in his name, I used cash and credit cards to the tune of 70k to get the house fixed up. Since I am not skilled in this sort of thing, it took longer and cost more than it would have. I didn't give him all of his investment back. His investment, like mine only smaller is lost. My question is does he have legal grounds to sue me and/or my father? Also, I have no money to give him.
