re the will - interesting if they had the property as TiC as it implies they were aware of how it would be distributed when one or other died. Is it worth checking how long it has been TiC and if there was a will done at that time
Any conveyancing solicitor worth their salt would have pointed out the potential pitfalls of an unmarried couple owning a property/dying intestate. OP, if you've got details of the solicitor who did the conveyancing, it might be worth asking if they did give advice on making a will - and hopefully even ensured one was made at the time.
Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, I don't have the solicitor's details. I do know who the Mortgage was with so maybe they will have the information and be kind enough to share it. I have a feeling though that it would be the solicitors that we have already approached and they confirmed that neither of them went through with their wills with their firm.
