Mr Tree doesn’t live here anymore | Homes and Property
Mr Tree doesn’t live here anymoreOur lawyer Fiona McNulty answers your questions© Malcolm Willett (www.willett-ink.co.uk)Question: We bought our house two years ago but have since discovered that the man we bought it from was in financial difficulties. A number of creditors have chased him at our address and this morning a solicitor was at the front door trying to serve some documents on him. Can this man’s poor credit record affect our own because of the common link with the property? Can we remove our address from his records and alert his creditors that he has moved?

What's your problem?
