Its strange how people buy the house they live in so its provides them with security against becoming homeless, but they never ever consider what position they will be in if their partner leaves them or vice versa. The whole financial house of cards is built on a relationship. What else could be such an unstable foundation for a secure future. Its ridiculous.
Most modern relationships are not stable enough to take out a life time mortgage on. I guess the bank can not assess a marriage or any other relationship for future trouble...lol Imagine that. Just a few personal questions if you please. I suppose the couple would have to be questioned separately and their answers compared. Imagine the awkwardness of failing such a test ? We had a game show in the UK in the 80's based on this premise, it was called " Mr & Mrs " Today that would be seen as prejudiced and unacceptable. No, I dont want to think about what it might be called nowadays. Come to think of it what questions should they ask ?
Today the for sale sign has gone up in the field that my sister wants to sell. Tonight that whole valley will be surmising about it, wondering and coming up with wild theories. If anyone asks I will just tell them the truth.
And now moving smoothly on to my Dads house foundations... The insurance Ombudsman after false starts and delays has reached a final verdict. The insurance company does not have to pay up to repair the subsidence problem. Its all been bullshit from day one. Why do we have insurance then ?
