Would you get involved in the house things of your sibling even if you dont live there?

Like to say how do you have to maintain your house, how things should be done even if it is not your house but the reason you do it is because you care for your sibling house not because you want to intrude.

My sister is like that, but she says she does it because she wants us to be safe and well for my sake and our mom sake who lives with me and my brother.

But sometimes I dont like it as she complains and questions too much. My brother says that the only way what our sister says not to bother me is just ignore what she says period and dont pay attention, just play along. My older sister is married and she has her own house with her hubby. Her house is nice, modern, unlike where my mom brother and mom live. It is an old big house that we had been living for many many years and of course it needs maintenance but since our dad passed away several years ago, we dont have the same money as when he was living to do house repairs often in the house, as there are other house priorities that need more attention than others and since we dont have enough money my brother and I decide what can be done short, medium or long term depends on the money we have at the moment we dont do it the exact and precise moment my sister tell us to do it, because she wants it to do it when she suggest not when we can do it.

Each time my sister stops by to pay mom and us a visit, she has to be like a house inspector, checking what things are in the house that need to be fixed, or she inspects if our house cleainng lady is doing a good job to keep the house clean. She enjoys checking our mom room, the kitchen, the living room, etc

For instance one time she did not like how the weeds grew in our side walk so she told our brother he needed to cut it cause esthetically the house look terrible. My brother told her he has not had time to do it, he will do it sometime. Another time, she did not like the light we

had in our patio cause it did not give much light at nights and taht could be dangerous for intruders, so she suggest us to change it. Then another time, she did not like the locks our door patio has cause since they are old, anyone can kick the door down and get inside and told us we have to change it ASAP immediately and call a locksmith. I mean we had been living for more than 35 years in this house with the same lock and thank God noone has ever get inside the house. Like I said some

home repairs we can't do it all at the same time cause we dont have enough money for that, we do it in terms, when we think we can do it. My sister complains we take too much time to decide and make things happen. Of course my sister complains or questions us (and her hubby Im sure also has something to do so she can complain) but she wotn pay for the things or pay for the services that needs to be done at the house to repair things, she just complains and butt in.
