Thank you. Can I specify that he doesn't make any purchases without getting mine and brother's prior approval.
Doesn't the whole executor/beneficiary thing seem to make so much more hassle than needs be. It seems like a conflict of interest, and casuses so much bad blood between people. If we were both beneficiaries and executors it would be so easy.
Alas, my father was close to his brother and sister, and he was close to us, but due to parent's divorce, aunt and uncle and me and brother are total strangers, I dont see why wills are set up this way.
I dont know if you can. You should get legal advice on that.
There is a difference between 200 on a skip and deciding to spend 20000 on the house before selling, I dont know where the line is.
It was your fathers decision to make them executors. You have to respect that. They possibly don't want to do it.
I know, it's just he's talking about hiring in contractors to clear out the whole house, and I don't understand why me, who will ultimately be paying for it, doesn't have a say
No they didn't. I don't care if they feel hard done by. It's not their money! And they have never shown any interest in me and my brother throughout our entire lives.Which again brings up the conflict of interest of an executor and beneficiary. You can't ask for lots of money as executor because you feel hard done by! If I make a will, I am making both executor and beneficiary the same person for ease. Thank you for your points. Would you all like to be updated after I visit the UK solicitor. It might help someone else in the future.So the property has to be sold - hopefully you'll get the information you need when you travel over and meet the solicitor. You'll be able to clarify whether the executors must arrange the sale, or if you and your brother can do it.
I agree the 10,000 sounds cheeky. Did the executors receive anything in the will for themselves? Maybe they are feeling hard done by.
I have spoken to my mother and we have agreed to go over to the uk, speak to the solicitor, and go and see what state the house in and go and sort the house out ourselves. Brother,mother and I all angry at his cheeky request for 10,000 with no receipts!
