These are my first thoughts but I will think a little more. I am going to put V client hat on first, (a little cooler) and ask myself if Toots were a client of mine what would I say? I will post a little later as V DB friend.
A number of things, firstly if he has been made redundant there will be a redundancy cheque. Any idea of how much, how many years has he been with his current employer for example? Is this a voluntary redundancy, if so there will be a large discretionary element. What about H pension stuff. Can look on this and there are changes from 6 April 2015 in the UK. Will review this for my next post.
H will get another job and that stage consider the issue of sale of houses.
Update L on this and get advice on your new position.
Take some of the emotional stuff with a pinch of salt, he may have applied for a job in China for all you know at this stage. Mind you my H just took his redundancy money, did not look for another job and spent it. But he is almost 59. If I had known this my view would have been different when this happened.
If this were V and she felt she were being made redundant then she would be researching a new job. Take the redundancy money, pay off a chunk of mortgage etc.
Take your time in rushing to respond, consider what your H is likely to do. Toots the job market in the UK is generally good. look after Toots on this. I think Toots needs more Intel.
