Hi my elderly neighbour has right of residence to his partners house.
2. Locksmith
Change all locks and include security measures to side gates, downstairs windows etc
I doubt this would be within his rights.
A right of residence does not exclude others rights in a property. While obviously you cannot get proper legal advice through AAM, I very much doubt from the above that this person has any right to exclude the family from the house, certainly not to change the locks
On the contrary @cremeegg I believe the right of residence includes peaceful use, also includes maintenance, utility bills etc.
So securing the property is well within the interests and rights of the resident.
The family are entitled to the property after his death; they have no entitlements until then.
Even a landlord cannot just walk in unannounced? Please explain
