    suzi, i think you'll find that it is impolite to make presumptions, without knowing personal cirrcumstances, or not answer the question asked

    its like me saying, "how are you today ?" and you reply "i'll have a cup of tea and biscuits." get it now......... totally illrelevant

    If you think she was being impolite, that is fine as you are entitled to your opinion, but that doesn't mean it is acceptable for you to be rude to her.

    Anyway, I hope you manage to do what you want to do with your parents' house and it works out well for everyone.

    For anyone who might like a good outline of some of the pitfalls of older folk gifting their property, have a look here

    Sorry OP - you were just asking about tax, we know.

    TBS, that is very impolite, answering a question that the OP clearly hasn't asked.

    Whew, I thought we were all meant to be nice to each other on here.
    I am disappointed at the bickering and now reluctant to post.
