Hi
Have a joint tenancy on house and land with partner who passed away suddenly. I am aware of automatic transfer to surviving owner.
His estranged children from a prior marriage were made executors and beneficiaries causing a nightmare.
Their solicitor has been bullying constantly and made a comment to ensure all items are ready to collect, but also stated the words "not to make any improvements to the property".
The items for sure are not something that you would improve. We are at final stages of a shed completion.
So what right has he to say that if talking about the house/land. ??
Is there anyway possible that solicitor could have something to do with the joint mortgage or land or something written prior to death allowing him to deal with these.?
I also had read somewhere about unilateral changing of joint tenancy?
