My dad died recently and I am sorting out his affairs. Mum is still alive.
They did not make any provision for their retirement and in 2004 they released equity from their house (£65,000). House needed major repairs including new roof.
I found a recent statement which shows that they now owe £200,000!!!
The paper work seems to be in order so I don’t suppose I have any legal redress.
If my mum needs care services/care home in the future it will definitely impact on what she might or might not be entitled to.
I agree that it should impact otherwise everybody would release the equity, spend it and expect the state to provide. I just don’t think my parents would have considered this at the time so wanted to warn others who may be thinking about releasing equity.
