Will's And Land Registry Deeds
2 Answers
y nanna made a will in nov 2010 saying my mum and mums brother were executors of the will and the estate (only a bungalow) and my mother was the benificary and the estate was to be shared 50/50 BUT only if the benificiary which is my mother agrees to sell it as she still lives there. In March 2011 my nanna signed over the house to my mum as a gift (this is because my mum sold her house to move in with nanna to help pay for the bills, debt, house and care (nothing much left after paying these off)) (my mums name is now on the deeds and land registry) In January this year my nanna died. Now my mums brother is contesting the will (had a letter from my mothers solicitor). what can my mums brother achieve? Can he force mum to sell the house or buy him out? My mum is still paying £23000 for nursing home fees that my uncle hasn't paid a penny? This is all we need just before Xmas! All the deeds etc are in my mums name. HELP :-(
It was 4 months from making the will to sigining the house over to mum and it's that what im thinking hes contesting.
She was in the right sound of mind when she did it, as it was a gift to my mum for doing a lot for her (my uncle has done nothing).
Originally our solicitor said my uncle cannot do anything but after speaking to him today, he's just basically said you mite aswell sell it and give him half?? which answer is right? im confused? He wants mum to write down everything to why nanna signed the house over to her within 4 months of making the will, and all bills expendachure etc apparently he's contesting it as he says my mother no longer needs the house (she's away 3/4 days a week but my brother still lives there)
