I wonder if anyone has filled in their own COP form, I have been quoted between £2500 and £3000 for a solicitor to do this for me. I need to fill this in as my father is wishing to sell his house which is in joint names with my mother but unfortunately she is in the late stages of altzheimers and unable to communicate. Does anyone know the timescale involved as I understand that it takes quite some time, also would my father be able to use the proceeds of the sale to purchase a flat which will cost more than half of the sale price of his house.
