I did use a solicitor to purchase the property so I think I'll go back to him first and see what he says. |

Tawny should not have to pay a cent for her solicitor to sort out the matter as they stem directly from the sale. |

As they left a lot of rubbish behind then it does give you some idea of what you may be looking at |

Thank you. I think my local CAB office may be my best bet |

I'd take the whole lot to the Citizen's Advice, as Andy'smum suggested - then you can get advice in one spot, instead of faffing around with this bank/that bill etc. |

The flat was never at risk as it was owned by Miss Clarty and not Mr Mawkit. Despite Miss Clarty owning the flat Mr Mawkit claimed to live there alone and so got his single person discount. Strange that isn't it when Mr Mawkit and Miss Clarty were in fact married that they never lived together :-0 :-0 |

While there are quite important differences between English and Scots property law both have this important principle in common: |

Thank you all for your advice. Mr Owl and I have informed the council that we now occupy the property and are paying the council tax by direct debit. |

I think Scottish contract law may not be the same as English so it is quite important to ask advice of somebody who is proficient in Scottish law. (I think you are in Scotland). |

On the questions before contract I'm sure the vendor is asked if anything in the property which will remain is not yet paid for. |

I'm not sure, and I think a call to the Citizens' Advice Bureau, or your own solicitor, might be a good idea. Or you could ring the local Sheriff Officers office. They have to carry out the law on behalf of the finance company and would certainly know the answer. |

Mr Owl and I bought our first home together earlier this year. It is a two bedroom flat with a separate kitchen, lounge and one bathroom. The couple we bought it from have since been nicknamed Mawkit and Clarty. |
