A loving father in Maryland has received widespread praise after spending $200,000 renovating his home to give his two adult daughters free apartments after learning about their high rents in New York City.

Before the renovation, Jameelah Khadar, 27, was paying roughly $2,200 a month for a flex, three-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn’s Cobble Hill neighborhood, while her sister Hameedah, 26, was paying about $2,800 a month for a studio in downtown Brooklyn, according to the New York Post.
