Congrats to your mate on purchasing his first property.
Lets all remember this guy has just purchased his first home. I’m sure you all remember how excited you were when you purchased yours and how keen you were to get in there as quick as you could, he hasn’t purchased it for someone else to reside in. It’s just unfortunate that that other person is a 94 year old lady.
You stated that at settlement a new lease was drawn up to expire in August. This should have been explained to her or those acting on her behalf prior to the sale. Don’t think for a moment that you are to blame for the position she is in as you are not.
As far as those ripping into lynnems mate for trying to scam the government, give it a rest. His intention was always to move into the property when the lease expired which he clearly stated so why should he give the money back, he is entitled to it.
I believe a nursing home would be the best solution. I find it distressing that her relative is not concenrned about her welfare. Sticky situation you have yourself here. Oh and don’t worry about the media (they will work to your advantage), at least they will find another place for her if they become involved.
Consult your solicitor or agent as I’m sure you will, just to asses alternative viable accomodation solutions in vacating her form YOUR first home at your earliest convenience.
Cheers.
