Heritable Property in Scottish Personal Insolvency

This course covers the powers of the trustee, debtor and lender in relation to heritable property, the difficulties of dealing with it, and practical realisation strategies.

Description

The technical framework for dealing with heritable property in sequestrations and protected trust deeds is pretty straightforward, but it is an increasingly difficult issue to resolve in practice. How best to get a return for creditors from a property, while treating the debtor and their family fairly? What rights does a secured lender have, and how do you work with them to achieve the best outcome for all? Just how much is ‘substantial equity’ and how should you treat it?

This course will also look at issues arising from buy to let properties, responsibility for council tax, and secured lender rights on insolvency.
