The judge found the purchase money for the property came from the 1st plaintiff, establishing a resulting trust in his favour; the 2nd defendant could not be treated as a bona fide purchaser of good value to defeat that trust; the 1998 transfer was not construed as a gift for advancement on the evidence; the 2nd defendant was entitled to recover renovation costs to the extent pleaded but leave to appeal was refused and the existing costs orders stood.
