My dear MIL has recently died and the house was in a family trust so they dudnt have to pay if she went into a nursing home. (Never going to work)
anyway they have since found out that they will now have a month to clear the house where they don’t have to pay the council tax and after then it will be charged at 150% !!
They have already started clearing and they are meeting the vicar and the undertaker next week in a house devoid of furniture.
one if the brothers has actually said by the time we pay for mums funeral , sort the will out etc., there won’t be much money left !!
I am so sorry that when the funeral happens we will stand In her home and there will be no furniture in it - how awful will that be ?
I can’t help thinking when my mum died we all met up there and the house was just as it was, we all had a glass of sherry and waited for the hearse.
they are even wondering how many funeral cars they can get away with ( there are a lot of them )
When I ask my husband he just says let them get in with it, which is equally shocking !!
it seems to me some of them are more interested in the money than anything else!
sorry for the ramble but I’m so fing angry I could cry she was such a lovely lady .
