Should I ignore this from now on?

My g/f & I are engaged, but don’t live together. She’s always making statements that she needs to watch her budget. Recently she learned her x-husband may be losing his job which means her support payments could be cut. Believe me, this won’t hurt her. He’ll get another job in no time.
A few days ago, she bought a much newer car. Her next door neighbours are always crying the poor mouth, saying they might lose their house, etc. The house is up for sale, but there haven’t been any open houses. The woman is a licensed realtor but says she doesn’t want an open house because she doesn’t want nosey neighbours going through the house. The house was listed @ $429,000. & she made the statement that she’d sell for $409,000. This has gone on a few months now, but she hasn’t reduced the price. There have been several viewings but no feedback or offer & she hasn’t ASKED for feedback.She definitely is NOT using all her tools as a realtor. NOW, they’ve bought my g/f’s car from her at a price of $3,500.00 & it’s been discovered there is approx. $2500.00 to $3,000.00 in needed repairs, yet they’re still buying it because the guy has a ‘chance’ to set up his own dent business & he needs a newer vehicle.He’s also at very high risk of losing his job because where he works is in the process of closing down. I’m very tired of hearing how hard things are for them, yet they turn around & do something like this. My g/f was unaware of what needed repair on her car. Her vehicle is well worth more than $3,500.00 with it being a 2002 GMC Envoy fully loaded. These neighbours are a royal pain in the butt too. They’re always just walking in whenever they feel like it. For this reason, I dont live with my g/f because I want more privacy & have told her this. It’s too late to start locking doors & asking them not to just walk in. If they were to move away, this whole scenario will be gone. Believe me, I was ecstatically happy when I learned their house was up for sale. I’ve gone as far as telling my g/f that her neighbour-friend (they’ve also been friends for many years) isn’t truly intent on selling the house or else she’d be more aggressive about it. This friend has also made a statement that another neighbour is undermining the sales in the area by listing their home at a much cheaper price. Well go figure that one. I guess so, when the sq. footage is much less. I think this person is blowing off steam. My g/f bought her house sight-unseen about 4 years ago, all on the recommendation of this neighbour-friend of hers & the back of my g/f’s house faces this neighbour’s property, which puts them next door. Very handy for going back & forth…too handy in my opinion.
I’ve told my g/f that I won’t live in that house because of the privacy issue.
I’m at the point where I want to tell my g/f if she mentions her friends problems, that I don’t want to hear it. They can’t be that badly off if they can spend money on buying her car. (They’re borrowing that money from the guy’s bro-in-law which means they’ll have to pay it back at some point).
I’m not sure what to do. Should I just ignore this whole thing??
