Can an estate buy a share in a house?
I am in a tricky position of being attorney for my frail mother who is living in care, and executor for my late father. Their house now stands empty, incurring risk and cost. It is held as tenants in common, a legacy of a now-irrelevant IHT scheme, or something: it doesn't matter, it happened. Once I have probate, my…

Quoting posts changed
Has the way we can quote posts changed intentionally? Now it gives a preview instead of the whole quoted post, but there's no way to highlight specific parts of a post by emboldening etc. This was useful to respond to specific parts of a post. Can this be brought back?

Debt, Endo and Reno
Hi! I’ve been reading different diaries for a while and think I need to hold myself accountable! I have a slightly odd set up as I live with the boyf, but have a house that’s now a holiday let/buy-to-let that I need to finish and get let out. I know evil landlord and all, but don’t want to put all my eggs in one basket…

USS pension - what happens to Investment Builder on death?

From what I can work out, it's not directly inheritable - which is surely a big downside of keeping funds in there after you've retired? My situation is that I have (been) retired…

However, there are both payments to and from Skipton for £250. I've used the help facility and been told that the transaction failed due to insufficient funds. This doesn't make sense…
