From reading a few posts it appears that when a person dies and their assets go to probate and a solicitor is involved that a fee is charged by the solicitor based on the total cost of the estate. 1% or 2%.
If an elderly person is in a nursing home and their home is unoccupied and never likely to be occupied again, is it better cost wise to sell the home before death or wait until the person dies?
