I am the sole beneficiary of my late mum's will and I have everything in my name alone, including the my former home in Bedfont. The Bedfont property was put into my name in April. I want to move. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', meaning my property ownership could be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in April. Do I have to wait half a year to sell?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook instructs conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you may be caught by that. Most banks would take a sensible view as this obligation primarily exists to identify subsales or the quick reselling of property.

Given that your lender is Leeds Building Society your lawyer must check the formal requirements outlined in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Leeds Building Society. The CML Handbook sets out minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to Leeds Building Society where a lease fails to satisfy these conditions. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not limited to Bedfont.
