    Oh, gawd. What a mess...

    Tell me about it! Had a 15 min chat with the lease advisory service and they suggested.........the executor relinquishing executorship and handing the F/H title back to the crown!

    Hmm. Auctioning it is probably a better solution.

    This has been suggested, the L/H have no interest in purchasing/even for free!. The ground rent is practically worthless, problem remains that urgent work is required and executor is receiving threatening solicitor letters which will have to be disclosed at auction. I don't think anyone would want to take this F/H property on, with all it's current issues.
