I have UK student loans of a similar amount to yours and have never mentioned them in Ireland nor seen them appear on my ICB report. The real issue for you here is time as you're effectively a foreigner who has recently appeared seeking credit. The fact it's an NI/ROI thing really has no bearing...

No, the front of the property is on a public road so there’s pedestrian access to the house itself through a gate there. However the neighbour’s new gate blocks vehicle access to the side/rear of the property and the parking area behind the house. You could probably park a car out the front on...

Unfortunately it’s a bank sale so I’m not sure how effective it would be to try and make it a condition of sale. The property has been vacant for a number of years. I like the house but could quite happily live the rest of my life without any neighbour issues.

I'm looking at an auction property in the area I currently live in so I know the property and the area well. The house comes with a walled-in garden per the land maps, and to the side there has traditionally been access to enable you to drive around and park at the back of the house (on land...

We're awaiting the grant of probate via a solicitor that has been delayed for various reasons and the insurance on the family home that forms part of the estate is due for renewal. There is no active executor (they have renounced their role) and the grant of probate hasn't come through yet so...

Thanks for the replies. I have asked the solicitors that have quoted if they would elaborate on what the fee includes and have just been told 'all matters relating to the probate of x estate' and when I then ask what that covers (giving examples of a couple of things) and the solicitors require...

I can't seem to find an answer for this anywhere so apologies for asking a silly question! Originally my brother and I had hoped to do the Probate on our parents' estate ourselves but there are some small complications with the estate and we're looking at hiring a solicitor to do the Probate...

Yes - Deeds located and safely stored.

I'm back! Family solicitor was helpful and though they wouldn't release the Will to me (as they had yet to engage with the Executor) they did confirm the distribution of assets is as per the copy of the Will we already have. They dealt directly with the Executor and confirmed to us that contact...

As soon as the affairs are settled and it's in a position to be sold/transferred to me. I'd do it today but for the issues of probate etc.

No she was strangely silent (and absent!) then as tends to be the case so often...every family has one right? @DirectDevil are you talking about something involving a solicitor or just something we write between ourselves? Honestly I hadn't thought about how the Title would transfer - I thought...

Speaking of in-laws...it's his partner that is making rumblings about me living here 'for nothing'.....hence me asking the question. Relations are good for now but I suspect that won't last once she pops her oar in.

Following the death of my parents my brother and I have been bequeathed the family home on a 50/50 basis. Down the line my brother has agreed to sell his half to me for the market rate. I have a question in the meantime though and I'm sure I'm not the only one who has come across it so I'd love...

You could ask for proof it entered the postal system and I suspect they'd give you the 2.50 back at that point - or maybe compromise with 1.25 as they can't prove they posted it and you can't prove you didn't receive it. I'm on the committee of several voluntary orgs and if it's any consolation...

Slightly offside of topic but many Credit Unions offer free (or nominally priced) Death Benefit Insurance to members to cover funeral costs. Our local one requires a balance of 500 euro be in the deceased's account at time of death and will pay up to 3,000 euro toward the funeral. They paid out...

My parents died in unfortunately quick succession and their most recent Will (made many years ago when I as youngest was under 18) appoints a distant cousin of theirs as both Guardian and Executor. Obviously I'm well over 18 so the Guardian element no longer applies but this distant cousin...
