Planning for residential care fees

Many people are concerned that their savings will be taken in the future and their home sold in order to pay for residential care and nursing home fees. This could leave little or nothing for your family to inherit.

We’ll look at the value of the property and your financial circumstances in order to discuss your options. Placing your home into a trust, which could potentially be held by your child or children, can help reduce the risk of a forced sale to pay for care home fees. You can also add terms to make sure that you have the right to stay in the property and cannot be evicted under any circumstances.

Planning for care home fees needs to be done carefully because this is a complex area of law. You should always seek legal advice before considering transferring your property to someone. You’ll also want to make sure that you don’t fall foul of the Deprivation of Assets Legislation, which allows local authorities to recover assets which they deem have been deliberately disposed of to avoid paying care fees. Local Authorities can apply to make an elderly person bankrupt and can apply to have a gift of property set aside.
