Fil Wants Us To Buy A Property Around 2kms Radius Of His Home

Just a vent
My husband got a pre approved home loan and we started looking for a property from January. We looked almost 50+ properties till now around his area. Either they are too costly or badly constructed. I started looking a little far from his place like 5 to 6 kms away. Even if the property is within our budget just because its far he is not ok with it. He does not say it directly. When asked about opinion he says its far and keeps quite. If we say we want to buy it, he says your wish its your property and then my husband takes a back step. For some properties if my husband is ok to buy, immediately he gets a call from his paternal uncle who is a lawyer giving his opinion on how bad is the area, or how costly it is or assuming some land litigation might be there and again my husband drops the idea of buying it. Home loan time of 6 months will be completed soon and if we still want to go for it we need to pay extra and extend it for few more months. From January my routine is : search for property online, give all the details to hubby, he will ask me to request my parents or my sister to go see the property, take photos and videos of the property and surrounding and give extract location on google maps for him to take a look. Once all this is done, he will give this address to his father to go and check. He comes back with a reason not to take. Im fed up and wasted a lot of time, mine as well my parents. Dont know if we ever be able to biy something

 

Thanks Mangaii and Shravs for response.
My parents started a restaurant business in second week of may and they are super busy and sister is also using her spare time to set up the hotel and help my dad to maintain it.
Now the situation is they cannot help us. We have no properties left in our area. If we want to go for this home loan we have to look in other places. FIL not ready to go to far places and check the property. My husbands friends were helpful initially for some properties like my parents. They used to go and get required photos and videos of the property but inspite of such help we could not zeroed any property and now even friends are busy ( might be fed up like us). Now the situation is my husband informs his dad, xyz property available in ABC area and FIL says its far and matter closed.
If this home loan time is up, again we need to pay application fee and go through all the paper work again.
Last year in May, Husband friend bought a plot in an area which is very far like 25kms from my place and told us about it. It was far from my place but was very close to an IT hub and will develop in coming years and an outer ring road is also planned from that area to the IT hub. So I bought a plot with my savings. My FIL was against it and cribbed a lot. Now also he reminds about how we bought plot far away and also curses his friend for advising us to buy.

 

Because it very far from his place.

 

Thank you mimi77 and coolpie...my husband said my dad has to like the property. I can't help and just have to wait and see.
