The estate agent acts for the seller, not the buyer. As such I would not believe what he says - the situation is likely to be worse. Get a proper survey if you intend to buy.

My suspicion is that there is some significant issue with her history at the bank in question which has been her bank for a while. I would like her to avoid Credit Unions for this amount of money. Is it not typical for a bank to do a credit check on a deposit account?

I am the executor (with probate) of my late mother's estate which is coming close to being finalised. In about a month I will be in a position to distribute funds to the beneficiaries. One of the beneficiaries had a request by her to open a deposit account (in order to lodge her portion of the...

You appear to have no interest in sorting out your expensive (compared to your income) lifestyle and instead keep looking for excuses as to why you need to drop your debt and run away. I predict that if you ran away from your debts you would end up back in the same position in 5 years time.

Sell the house and split the proceeds.

I paid for some services using my credit card at the end of February and haven't been charged for it yet. How long can the company take before applying the charge?

I'm the executor of my late mother's will and will be selling her house through an auctioneer. The house will be sold by private treaty. I am not living in the city where the house is being sold and so am remote from the auctioneer. What sort of updates can I expect or ask from him, within...

Any UK bank which I've applied to will accept certification by a chartered accountant. If you work in a company then it should be simple enough to have one of them sign and stamp the copy of your passport or driving licence.

I've two things in the planning stage: I'm engaged to be married this year and also planning on buying a house; the marriage will come first. My fiancee already owns an apartment, solely in her own name. She will not be selling this in the near future. I have not purchased property in the past...

If there is money in building societies, banks etc. which forms part of the estate then you may be able to gain access to the funds before probate has been granted. In this case you would not need to take out a loan to complete the work or pay off debts owing on the estate (which should be your...

Re: Probate Typically an executor will have up to 1 year to get started on the estate. Unless it's a complex estate the probate fee you've been quoted is crazy. I'm having a solicitor perform it for less than 4k. If the estate is simple you can always perform probate yourself - no need for...

Thanks!

Hi, If I have made a capital gain (say from selling shares) which is below the personal exemption limit of €1,270 then do I need to make a return to the Revenue? Thanks.

In that instance if I had two valuations from two estate agents then would there be an issue with submitting the higher of the two? It would clearly be an advantage in the low-valuation/higher-sale situation. This is assuming that the house value would rise (unlikely) and that we would not...

I'm about to file an Inland Revenue Affidavit for the estate of my late mother for which I am the executor. I do not expect that CAT will be due. The main asset is the family home and I've obtained a valuation for this. My question is this: if I submit a valuation of the house for €X and then...

I'm currently acting as the executor for my late mother's estate. If you wish to employ a solicitor then shop around. In my own case I've chosen to appoint a solicitor to obtain probate and also to perform conveyancing on the sale of the house (main asset). The solicitor is charging me a fixed...

Hi, My mother recently passed away and left a will in which I have been named as sole executor. At present I am gathering together details of the estate for the purposes of the Revenue Affidavidat before proceeding to probate. The will is simple with the estate to be divided equally between...

Hi, My mother recently passed away and I'm the named executor of her will; the main asset is the family home. My mother had stored the deeds of the house in the property itself; I've removed these from there and now have them in my possession. The house will eventually be sold once probate has...
