If You're Selling To Pay For Care


If you're selling your home to pay for care fees, it may not be as complicated as you first think.

Firstly, and most importantly, there’s no need to worry about covering the costs of care for you or a loved one. If you do need to sell your home to pay for care, you can move into a care home and the fees will be deducted from the sale of your home at a later date.

Secondly, there's no forward chain which simplifies the sales process.
