I need help with my current life situation
Hi this is my life right now.
I live in a 3 bedroom house in England, with my wife who is disabled and my three children (18,17 and 12) due to the kids all needed their own bedrooms a few years ago me and my wife moved our bedroom into our living room. The house we live in is private rented, but is in terrible condition. Not gunna go too much into it but everything from holes in the roof, broken fences and black mould(black mould actually causing some health issues), among other things. Which our landlord refuses to do anything about. I know I need to find a 4 bedroom house for us as we are really not happy with our living conditions.
Due to the cost of living in the uk I found myself a cash in hand job, starting washing dishes and worked up, over 3 years, to now running the small food business myself for not much money, way below minimum wage, but it’s cash in hand and helps me feed my family, but we are barely clinging on.
I want to give my family a better life than they currently have.
A few years ago my nan and grandad both passed away, in their will it left me and my mother their house. My mother currently lives in the house in question. We don’t really speak and haven’t for a few years.
My point is I want to open my own food business, provide a better life for my kids, and get us into a house that we are happy in.
I know I have 50% of a house that I could somehow use to bankroll me setting up my own business, but I have no idea how or where to even start with any of it. Any help or advice would be hugely appreciated
