Land Law problem question

Must use KEY AND RELEVANT UK LAND LAW TO ADVISE CLIENT AS IF YOU ARE A SOLICITOR.

DO NOT ASK TO ASSIGN IF YOU CANNOT PRODUCE HIGHEST QUALITY GRADE A PAPER

SOMEONE WHO HAS EXCEPTIONAL ENGLISH GRAMMAR AND KNOWS UK PROPERTY LAW.

I have uploaded an essay with a similar problem question of an example that the essay should not be written in this way and it is a failed paper below 20%.

This essay must have land law and case law, the cases must not be explained in great depth, but you must show why the case has been applied in the essay and also must explain why a particular statue of land law is being used in the problem question.
All points must be explained and not just dropped into an essay with no explanation and be dead ended.

Please also find a second attachment of an example answer for the same question named 7342.

Word Limit: 3,500 words (excluding footnotes and bibliography: however, do not abuse the footnotes! Over-long/irrelevant/boring footnotes will be marked down!)

Johnson is the sole registered proprietor of 5 Pilchard Way, a semi-detached house. He purchased the property by way of a mortgage. He lived there alone for several years, before meeting Patsy, with whom he embarked upon a whirlwind romance. Johnson decided to ask Patsy to move in with him. Patsy agreed. They decided that they should make the house ‘their’ space, by re-decorating it from top to bottom. This included not only painting all of the rooms in soft pastel colours, but also installing a breakfast bar in the kitchen (Johnson and Patsy originally met over breakfast in a swish Bloomsbury café).

At that time, Johnson worked as a lecturer. Patsy, having recently finished her PhD, was trying to get an academic job. This meant that, whilst Johnson paid for the paint and materials to build the breakfast bar, it was Patsy who actually did all of the painting, and built the bar in the kitchen. Impressed with the work Patsy had done, Johnson told her, ‘You have really made this our home. We will share it together forever. I want you to share ownership of the house with me.’ However, Johnson never contacted the Land Registry to make Patsy a joint tenant.

A few months after this, Patsy had some luck in finding work, becoming a part-time tutor at a famous Bloomsbury university. She used her earnings to pay the utility bills at 5 Pilchard Way, as well as to buy shrubs and trees to plant in its garden. Over breakfast one morning, Johnson suggested that, as they will be together forever, they should open a joint bank account, and have their wages paid into this. Patsy agreed, feeling secure in the love and care emanating from Johnson. Despite this, they never actually got around to opening the joint account, and continued to keep separate bank accounts instead.

On the 6th anniversary of Patsy moving in to 5 Pilchard Way, she awakes to a nasty surprise: on the breakfast bar is a note from Johnson. It says that Johnson is moving abroad, as he really needs to find himself. He thanks Patsy for all of the joy and opportunity for personal growth that she has given him, but that it is now time to move on. Johnson has left a cheque for £6,000 on the breakfast bar, writing that this is to help Patsy ‘set herself up somewhere else’. In a post-script, he adds that 5 Pilchard Way has been sold, and that Patsy will need to vacate by the end of the month. 5 Pilchard Way has been sold to Benji, a lecturer in the same department as Johnson.

Advise Patsy as to any claim she may have to 5 Pilchard Way.

Please find the rule in UK Land Law to advise the party Patsy of the negatives and positives of her claim.
