Hi,my sister has lived in the family home for over 40+ years.
My dad use to pay the rent,when he died,my sister began to pay,they have both worked all there lives.
dad has been dead for 5 years now,so when she put in to buy the family home,the council says she is not entitled to 75% discount as she has only been the paying tenent for 5 years.My sis has lived there all her life.
Is this right? only one person can pay rent at one time,so surely my sis should be able to claim the full 75% dicount.
