Hello Everyone
Just an update after what turned into a very stressful day and night I am updating on the situation with the house. I phoned my youngest brother to say that I had paid my share of dad's tombstone fees. He then
started talking about the house saying that he has applied for a job in another county which could start in September and he would need to move. He says he has no money coming in at the moment and I only half a dozen of my Piano and Violin pupils because of lockdown.
I live here on my own and I have gone through mum, dad and nana's stuff but very slowly because I've tried to divide my time between finding pupils on-line, housework and clearing (I am also re-calculating what I can now afford to spend on a flat). My brother says I've had two months to do this and he wants to come round next week and take things to the tip.
He would like me to move out by xmas.
I phoned my other brother to find out how far my sister-in-law had got with the on-line probate and whilst all the inheritance tax forms are now submitted they had delayed applying for probate because of lockdown. We went through finances and what I could afford at the moment is quite small but then I don't know what will happen to property prices.
I have also been thinking again about re-mortgaging so I phoned one of my building societies and they said they could consider despite my age when probate is through as a third of the house is mine.
Deeply stressed
