True but on the flip side if the house was wound down for 6-9-12 months to the bare minimum cost with mortgage covered (be that through benefits or otherwise), you would hope it sold within that time frame, leaving you more money at the end?

Just thinking out loud here. Not a great situation to be in

You need advice from a solicitor about that
My own solicitor has confirmed the document allows me to act in his shoes, sell the property and deposit the remaining proceeds into her account. Surely that's a good thing?
