I'm the only recipient of my late grandmother’s will and I have everything in my name now, including the house in Blaenau Gwent. The Blaenau Gwent property was put into my name in November. I plan to dispose of the property. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be treated the same way as though I had purchased the house in November. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The CML handbook requires conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you may be impacted by that. How sensible a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the mortgage company as this provision principally exists to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of property.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
