I’m quite anxious as I’ve never been directly involved in selling property. I can’t rest with worry that I won’t get what’s expected for the house. Or that the house will take ages to sell. I have a 12 week property disregard which by the time the house is properly cleared, and Christmas and new year getting in the way, I worry as 12 weeks will be very tight to sell the property. I worry that I’ll then be expected to fund the fees for the care home which I won’t have until the property sells. Dad has savings but he’s having to keep paying the mortgage Tim if sells and storage for some of the sentimental contents etc. so I don’t want to use these savings.
I see that when signing the contract it states I’m signing as guarantor jointly and severally but I’m a single parent so certainly can’t afford to step in for dad.
Has anyone had experience where they’re short in funds because the house sale didn’t reap what was expected? And anyone refused to sign the agreement due to the guarantor bit and still been accepted to remain in the home? It’s all making me rather anxious.
