The way I see the situation is the house is worth about £550,000.00 and the general cost of moving house is about 10%of its value so that is £55,000.00.
People are saying a single man does not need a £550,000.00 house at 67 and his assets are over £1,100,000.00 because he had a similar house before inheriting that one.
That may be the case but that money is for his enjoyment and not the people who want him to go.
Under the circumstances I will pay my share amounting to £55.00 which is only a tank full of petrol and the other 1,000 people can pay theirs.
