I happen to be the only beneficiary of my late father’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Barton Seagrave. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in January. I plan to dispose of the house. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be considered the same way as though I had purchased the property in January.
