Reply to Freehold Nepotism

by AndrewDod

- Nobody can be forced to be a director of a company (indeed some people are disqualified)
- If you are disabled and you feel the property is not managed according to the law/lease it is better not to be a director (or even a minority shareholder)....

As said above he does sound like a guest and not a tenant, although he may well have a claim on the house via the rules governing inheritance unless the will states something different ..... which given his family position can be challenged anyway....

Unusual situation

by mystic08

The ex husband of a friend of mine has died. She is an executor of his estate and is unsure of the situation re her stepson. He receives some benefits (not housing) and has lived in the pool house (more of a shed really) rent free for the last fifteen years. It has a washbasin, a cooker and a heater....

Has the late father bequeathed anything to him in the will ? It frankly sounds an odd arrangement for his son to be living in some kind of habitat/shed for 15 years !

Thinking about it further, as he is receiving benefits he must have given his fathers address as his own. I’d hazard a guess the shed hasn’t had building regs approval for accommodation. So technically he is merely a resident of the property?...

Reply to Unusual situation
