The Facebook post appeared at 9:47 AM on a Tuesday. My sister Monica had tagged our entire family, forty-three people, in a celebration announcement complete with champagne emojis and a photo of a massive check made out to her for $2.1 million. The comments flooded in within minutes. Mom: "So proud of you!" Dad: "Always knew you had the business gene!" Aunt Carol: "Can't wait to see the boat!"
I was in a budget meeting when my phone started vibrating. Eighteen texts. Twelve notifications. Three missed calls. I excused myself and stepped into the hallway. My hands went cold as I scrolled through Monica's post. The warehouse. My warehouse. The 47,000-square-foot industrial building on Seventh Street that I'd purchased six years ago for $890,000. The property that generated $18,500 monthly from three established commercial tenants. The building Monica had just announced selling without my knowledge, consent, or legal authority.
I'd kept the warehouse quiet from family. Not secret, just private. After years of them treating my career as "cute" while Monica's real estate license made her the family golden child, I'd stopped sharing my investment portfolio. They didn't know about the warehouse. They didn't know about the four rental properties. They didn't know about the $340,000 in commercial real estate equity I'd built while they praised Monica for selling suburban starter homes.
The property sat in an up-and-coming arts district. Ground floor: specialty coffee roaster with industrial equipment, fifteen employees, seven-year lease. Second floor: boutique furniture maker, custom woodworking operation, twelve craftspeople, five-year lease. Third floor: architectural firm, twenty-two employees, four-year lease. Total monthly rent: $18,500. Property management company handled everything. Tenants were happy. Cash flowed beautifully. I was silent and successful.
Apparently, Monica had been neither.
I called Derek Chen, my property manager. He answered on the first ring, his voice tight. "I was just about to call you. We have a situation."
"I saw Monica's post," I said.
"It's worse than the post." Derek's keyboard clicked in the background. "Your sister has been showing up at the property for three weeks. She's been harassing your tenants. Demanding access to their spaces. Claiming she's the new owner. Telling them they need to vacate. The coffee roaster called me yesterday in tears. The furniture maker filed a police report two days ago. And the architecture firm? They just sent me a cease and desist letter—for your sister."
My throat tightened. "She's been doing what?"
