Hi David
I'm not sure but I think I've just answered this query under another post! But in that case, it appeared that you had not yet entered into your IVA.
Did you read the IVA proposal before you signed it and it was issued to creditors? You must have noticed these provisions then and agreed to them, therefore it will be difficult to get out of it now on the basis that you did not understand.
Did you meet your IP face to face, or was this done all over the phone? I am sure the issue regarding the house must have been carefully explained to you, given the serious implications of agreeing to sell it within 6 months. If this is not the case, you may have grounds for a complaint.
