Ok, I've looked through the various newsgroups and websites and quickly came to the conclusion that I'm confused.
Can I please run my scenario past you guys and ask for your opinions?
Situation: My wife is one of four kids. Her parents are both alive and live in a house worth about £400k We would like to move into a bigger house (with our children, dog etc etc) but can't afford to move.
Is there a way that we can realise some of the inheritance ahead of time? This has been a suggestion of my wife's parents rather than something we have pushed for, but to be honest I really don't have a clue how to look into this. I have a feeling thate avoiding the involvement of finance companies 'might' be a good idea. My vision was that maybe the four siblings could jointly become involved in making something happen
- just a thought.
Anyway, any ideas?
Thanks in advance, Paul
