No, you can get a "Severence of Joint Tenancy" agreement signed, see your solicitor. If you get a "Power of Attorney" granted for when she does lose her ability to make concious decisions, you get sole care of the house, I believe

I would have her sign her half over to you to be safe or if she must sale you her half for like a dollar to you...I would do it quickly before she goes into care or is even about doing it...there might be a certain amount of time that has to pass before she goes into care so, they won't have the right to say she gave up assets before she knew she was going into care....call a lawyer--some will tell you with out paying a fee.....

If u are the co-owner and can have her sign the absolute sale then yes. But if its still in the name of your mum and and ur dead dad then u will have to declare the estate of your father. consult a lawyer.

yes to pay for her care, unless she has some sort of savings to pay for it, mt hubbys grandad went into care and no-one gets any money from the sale of the house as it's for his care. id sign it over to you so you wont have to worry about it.

Get proper advice. But I would say its ok unless she wants to sell her half, then you would have to try and buy the other half.

Ask a solicitor. You're far more likely to get a reliable answer from them.
