    Oh I'm sorry Watty, I hope there is another way to do this for you. Would it be possible to rent your place out and temporarily move away, renting elsewhere. Or would this create more problems? If so ignore 🙈.

    Sorry to hear this but at the time it literally was the only solution to get shot of him.   So it was the correct decision.   No need to revisit that and second guess decisions made at the time.

    Time will take care of it eventually if you can keep it till then.

    There may be merit in looking into renting out for that time.  Once vnm House sells there may be enough money that you can still live elsewhere for a few years till you can sell.  

    Lastly there may still be someone out there willing to buy - housebuilding companies often buy up land they have no intention of building on for years as they like to have their next 5 or 6 estates lined up ready for when they are ready.

    Just suggestions, your professional people may have more ideas about what might and might not work

    Not surprised you had a cry and some chocolate. I would've added in a bottle of wine and a bag of chippie chips as well!
    Anyway, what's done is done and you will never be to blame for PPH manipulating you.
    If the worst outcome is that you can't develop, and just sell the gaff for a lower price, then you'll still be doing that to move somewhere with a healthy business, retirement options, menagerie, and a VNM.
    Hopefully legal firm will be able to give helpful advice. We don't know what PPH's situation or headspace is, he might welcome or at least begrudgingly accept an offer for the overage being bought out (if that would be beneficial to you)
