If you look at the OPs other threads, it does not appear to be hypothetical.
OP, you might find it more useful if you keep all the questions together in one thread. With random bits of information dotted round the site the advice you get may not be relevant otherwise.
True, this is not hypothetical, and from my other threads, you can see what a terrible situation I am in.
I am just trying to seek alternative views by starting additional threads as I am finding one thread can be dominated by a particular post and consequently led by it.0 -

I've had a quick look at the other threads you've started and you seem to have been going round in circles for over a month.
I do understand that you wanted a range of opinions but starting a thread that lacks the background information just elicits hypothetical answers. They can't really help you because they don't take the actual circumstances into account so posters are giving general answers or making a stab in the dark.
I really would recommend that you see a solicitor and ask what your options are.0 -
What happens when two people who don't get along, inherit a house and then sell it? Who gets the money? Is it held by the solicitor and then divided equally (or whatever is stipulated in the will), with funds going into respective banks? Or does it go into a joint account?
Same as any other couple without kids who split up and sell a house...
My ex and I bought 50/50, so when it was sold, our solcitor was given the details of both our bank accounts and the money after costs was then split equally.
A very simple process.Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0
