Hi my name is Karen and I live in Runcorn, Cheshire
I am a responsible person and I am not in debt.
I am, however, common and on benefits.
I have brought up four children as a single parent.
My mum and dad supported me enormously in the problematic periods of my life.
I need some info if anyone has an answer please.
I have lasting power of attorney/joint and severally along with my brother and sister, who have personal issues with me.
My mum has vascular dementia and has been in a home since 2015..
My dad set up power of attorney naming his three chidren as poa/joint and severally. Sadly he died in 2015.
As powers of attorney we rented out their empty house, through letting agents, to pay for mums care and residency in the home.
My daughter and myself live in seperate, privately rented accommodation, recently we decided for financial reasons, we would move in to a lager property together.
The current tenants are moving out of mums house and it is up for rent again.
I phoned and asked my brother if he had any objections about renting the property to me and his niece. He was agreeable, said he didn't have any objections, however, I was to phone my sister as she dealt with all financial matters.
I phoned and left a voicemail asking her to phone me back. I never received a phone call back from her.
My brother did phone me a couple of days later.
My siblings had discussed renting to me and my daughter.
They both decided it wasn't feasible to rent the house to us.
When I asked why he became very aggressive, attacking me verbally, slashing my character to bits.
I know that I can act independently from my siblings and ask for keys from agent.
Here is the dilemma
If I ask for the keys whilst the tenant still occupies the property, the agent will report back to siblings
If I discuss it with agents they will report back to siblings
If I see the agent after tenant vacates the property, the siblings may appropriate the keys. However if this happens, they won't be looking after mums best interests would they?
There is no reason on why it is not "feasible"
I know it's because they don't like me.
