CAN ANYBODY HELP!?!?!?!
We are having to sell my mother in laws house to pay for care home fees.
There is a charge on the house.
We are getting 80,000 for the house. Bolton wanted £76,000 off us last week.
We have been invoiced for ~ &400 per month for the last 5 years. We maintain that she should be getting NHS funded care so have not paid it. However, last week we offered to pay the £25.000 for which we had been invoiced (for the purposes of getting the charge lifted so sale could proceed)and to put the balance in a trust fund until disput resolved.
They wrote back by return and said that we owe them £81,ooo. Since this exceed the amount we are getting for the house, we can't afford to pay them.
Can anybody please help? we are supposed to be exchanging contracts on Wednesday.
