I know this is not your area but I was hoping you could point me to a forum group who could help.
I bought the house in 2005 on interest only. When I retired (last year 66 years )my plan was to sell the property and pay back the outstanding balance. We have been told by the Scottish government and Glasgow Council last year that this building has the cladding the most dangerous type.and no one can sell . No building society will give a loan until the cladding has been removed. This take up to 3 years. I have used all my savings, paying the £ 911 a month. along with factor charges. Is there anyone who can help me to a forum group with the same issues. I am grateful if anyone can help.
Kind regards
Teresa

Hi Souter,

Oh god, this must be awful having to go through this experience, incredibly worrying and I hope you get some advice/help soon.

I have approved your message, and hopefully anyone living in Scotland can assist with this.

I've also had a look around online for a few links, they may/may not be of any use, but you just never know, if you find time to have a scroll through them. :)

Hi Souter,

I would think SHELTER might be worth a call, they could perhaps direct you to groups that are in the same or similar situations and perhaps even advise you. I had a quick look on their website and there is a SHELTER in Edinburgh.
I am so sorry you find yourself in this situation,.
