Hi, can anyone help?
Dad is very ill. His will leaves everything to mum.
They live on rental income from a property which is in dad's name, but the rent goes into a joint account.
What will happen when he dies? Will the rent be stopped from going into the joint account?
I think it will be ok in the end, but in the short term it could get tricky! We'll probably get a solicitor to do probate, but it's just making sure she is ok in the meantime.
Also, if the property is in his name but left to his wife, will she need to pay inheritance tax on it?
Thank you!
