My dear friend is married to woman who in a previous relationship went bankrupt twenty years ago. He tried desperately to stop this happening but the bank wouldn't extend the overdraft and it did and they wet bankrupt His mother was worried that the creditors would
come after the family home so she put it on the sisters name to be shared equally on her death The mother then died five years ago she rented the house kept all the rent. The mother left a letter of wishes and said the sister could sell the house when she felt fit but give the friend 50k when she did. My friend was gutted at this and not spoken to the sister since. He has found out she has now sold the house and not been in touch. He knows she is keeping it all Will Karma get her

Oh dear. The mother should never have done that. They can’t just take things from people like the family home. They can only take assets directly in the name of that person. The court would never allow that. The house was safe if it was in the mother’s name. None of the debt was hers. Never ever take action without getting advice and the same goes here. Your friend needs to go and see a solicitor! There are lots of assumptions being made in that family.

The mother left the house to the sister, the sister legally owns the house.

If your friend is willing to fall out with their sister over money then why would she want contact with them anyway?
