Hi
My Mum passed away a couple of months ago and the house she and dad owned jointly has now passed to my dad. Dad has been in a care home with dementia for a number of years and at the moment is funded completely. The family home is empty while we decide what to do with it. My sister is returning to the uk from abroad and wants to live in the family home for a short period while she looks for a job; she would of course cover any bills etc. I am power of attorney for dad and am happy for my sister to live there short term and I am sure dad would be too. Can someone advise me please, is this ok in the eyes of the law, would I be breaching my duties as P of A and looking after dads best interests? Thanks
