Thank you for your helful website
I believe my ex son-in-law will not give a correct account of his finances. My daughter is joint mortgagee and I should like to help her.

Does your daughter have debts in her own name?

Good morning pwmdy,
Welcome to the forum.
I understand that you are trying to help your daughter but could you please tell us about your daughter's situation? I understand that she has a joint mortgage with her ex husband but do they also have joint debt?
Kind regards,

Hi again
Well your daughter is certainly not insolvent, with equity at the level she currently has. I suggest you help her to write to all of her creditors to explain her current predicament, as I assume that she and her husband are going through matrimonial difficulties. Their best bet would be to remortgage to the extent that they need to repay their unsecured debts.

Hello pwmdy,
I agree with Melanie on this. The best way to solve this problem seems like to release equity.
In the meantime, she could offer her creditors a token payment by sending a letter similar to this;
Dear Sir/Madam
Re:- Account/Reference Number
Since making that above agreement with you, my circumstances have changed.
I cannot now afford to agreed monthly payments because ……………
I enclose a Personal Budget sheet which shows my total income from all sources, and the total outgoings of my household. As you can see I have no money left to make offers of payment to my creditors.
In view of my circumstances, would you please accept a token offer of £1.00 per month to be reviewed in six months?
If interest or other charges are being added to the account, I would be grateful if you would freeze these so my debt does not increase.
Should my circumstances improve I will contact you again.
I would be grateful if you would send a standing order form to make it easier to pay you.
Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.
Yours faithfully
Regards,
Julia Simavi
