When a property is held in joint names both people can sign the contract and agree to a sale - but what if one person loses their mental capacity?
In these circumstances, an application needs to be made to the Court of Protection (COP) to have a second Trustee appointed to act on behalf of the mentally incapable person and sign on their behalf to agree the sale.
