Hi
Does anyone have any experience of having been means tested for a social welfare payment while part owning a foreign property.
I have read the figures on the website but am wondering if they can count the value of a 2nd property as means when
1. There is a mortgage on half of it.
2. There are 2 names on the deeds and only one wants to claim social welfare
3. It is not being rented out or making any money whatsoever and as it is on a 'building site' it is proving difficult to sell at the moment.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
