Will house purchases be delayed after Brexit?
Stealthtax
Posts: 2 Newbie
I’m going to be buying the house that I currently rent, for cash, when my inheritance comes through. Probate has been granted, after 2months, but the executor and banks are likely to have more delays before the funds are released.
I’m worried if it drags on much longer, it’ll be after Brexit and then the house buying system, solicitors, land registry etc are likely to become fractured and super stressful. The reason I say this is a probate officer I spoke to, said their system is broken because of Brexit. I took this to mean the system was broken deliberately by the government, to punish people for voting to leave, which has been adopted by the DWP and many other agencies. So solicitors and land registry (and therefore the housing market/chains) will most likely soon be a shambolic stretch of stress and limbo?

Combined with your user name, can we surmise you might be a bit of a conspiracy theorist in general?
If probate has been granted, then it's simply down to the executor to extract digit. There is no more probate delay. That bit is done. Two months isn't too bad for probate - must have been simple.0 -
I think most public sector systems are broken through sheer incompetence rather than some sort of conspiracy.Stealthtax wrote: »the system was broken deliberately by the government, to punish people for voting to leave0 -

Don`t worry the government are soon going to be punished severely by the people for not leaving.0 -

Yer, sounds about right.
I think that it was in their manifesto along with the bit about aircraft being used to spray us with mind controlling chemicals.
