Hey IWITW,

I had forgotten how similar our sitchs were. Holy crap!

Dude, my only question is where will d8 live and with whom? I didn't read everything but it sounds like maybe d8 will live with your W?

Your L's advice seems sound but how far will you be from d8 once you find a place closer to work?

I'm getting similar advice from my L, i.e. provide sufficient equity so that the monthly support payments are as low as possible. It seems counter intuitive to me as well because it feels like I'm rescuing her, i.e. if she can't afford to buy a different house then the consequence is she'll have to rent. But maybe there is wisdom in this approach that I'm not appreciating.
