I still lived at home with my parents in a council rented house, i was not married but engaged saving up to buy a property, My Dad died very suddenly 10 years ago so that left Mum and I to struggle to pay the rent etc. At that time my now Husband, Mum and I went in for the right to buy scheme, which we now own the lease on the property. I have paid the mortgage for the last nine years and Mum's name is on the lease. We now find ourselves in the position that Mum has AD and the assessment unit she is in want to move her on to an EMI nursing home, does anyone know or can advise me if my mum's name being on the lease will be classed as being part of her assets, despite the fact that Mum has not paid any of the mortgage but has helped paying some of the utility bills?
Thank you
