anyone got experience of this? say for instance a single person, on a state pension who paid off their mortgage many years ago and intends to leave it to their kids..
will the Local Authority seize the property and sell it themselves for a fair price? or take that person to court to force them to sell?
I understand that care home costs will be paid for by the persons savings/estate until there is only £23k remaining, at which point the LA will pay for care?
i think i'd always assumed that care homes for the elderly were paid for through their lifetime of national insurance contributions
