I happen to be the sole recipient of my late father’s will and I have everything in my name alone, including the house in Barnetby le Wold. The Barnetby le Wold property was put into my name in February. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', meaning my property ownership will be treated the same way as though I had purchased the property in February. Will no one buy the property for half a year?

It is not clear whether my lender requires a lease extension. I have called my Barnetby le Wold building society branch on a couple of occasions and was told it wasn't a problem and they would lend. My Barnetby le Wold conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they refuse to lend based on their specific requirements. I simply don't know who is right.
The conveyancer has to follow the CML Handbook section two provisions for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.
