I am the sole beneficiary of my late grandmother’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Attleborough. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in September. I want to move. I understand that there is a CML 6 month 'rule', which means that my property ownership could be considered the same way as if I'd bought the house in September. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The CML handbook obliges conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you might be affected by that.

I currently have a mortgage with Yorkshire BS for my property in Attleborough. Conveyancing has been completed 12 months ago. If I am intending to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Yorkshire BS?
Your original mortgage agreement with Yorkshire BS will provide that you need their approval before renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of Yorkshire BS’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will allow you to rent out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Yorkshire BS directly. You need not do this via a Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel firm.
