I am the single beneficiary of my late mum's estate and I have everything in my name alone, including the house in Barnt Green. The Barnt Green property was put into my name in February. I want to move. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my property ownership will be treated the same way as if I'd bought the house in February. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you could be affected by that. many mortgage companies would take a practical view as this obligation principally exists to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of properties.

I had a mortgage agreed in principle with TSB. Barnt Green conveyancing lawyers have been instructed. How long does it take for TSB to send the offer to the conveyancer?

Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes approximately ten days to receive the mortgage offer. Co-operative will send the offer to you and your property lawyers. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Barnt Green.

Due to the encouragement of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Barnt Green ahead of instructing conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. My surveyor advised that some lenders may refuse to issue a loan on this type of home.
