Start moving after exchange ?
Comments

Well ideally we would but sis is being a bit awkward and insiting we exchange first.Under the circumstances i'd say you don't even have to wait for exchange to get going with things. So long as your mother has no objection to it of course. The legalities only kick in if one side disagrees with another. And as that sounds v. unlikely to happen, just get going.
We have however tidied up the garden before we told her:p0 -
No not exchange yet but soon ,good to know that we can atleast get a few bits done straight after exchange thanks
Is a lil bit gutting tho to know we are having to pay a market value ( so as not to cause legal probs with care fees )for a house we would have otherwise inherited ,damned rules!!
Getting bits done after exchange is only my opinion, legally its not right, but if it were my mum's house and we were buying it, i would be very tempted to go in and start doing things now, ie before exchange, but obviously your sister is against that so i wouldnt up set the situation anymore, and leave it til she is happy for you to go in and do things.0
