DH thinks we don't need wills as we are married but I worry about what would happen if one of us was to die intestate.
We are both in our 50s. Don't have much savings but the house is paid off and worth around £400K and he has around £200K in a private pension.
How would this be divided without wills? I understand it is shared above £322K? Would this mean selling our home?
And there are some new rules coming in after 2027 that pensions are part of the estate, not sure if that will change anything.
He has stated in his pension it is to be left to me, but not sure how that would work out.
I think it sounds like a potential minefield and that we should get wills sorted. AIBU?
