My dad's been in the extortionately expensive home for a couple of months now and has accepted that he can't go home. We've put his flat on the market but despite all the estate agents we saw telling us that it would be snapped up in no time so far we've only had one viewing.
The local authority where the home is offers the deferred payments scheme, whereby they pay the fees in return for a charge on the sale of the flat. Unless we can sell the flat in the next three months were going to run out of money as my dad's income doesn't cover the fees and some of his savings (which is counted in my affordability reckonings) are locked up until October.
However I've been in contact with them and so far not heard anything back. Before I start chasing them does anyone know if I should be talking to the LA where the home is or the LA where he was living before going into the home? Thanks

Anyone know anything about the deferred payments scheme?
