I am the single recipient of my late grandmother’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Bonvilston. The Bonvilston property was put into my name in April. I want to move. I understand that there is a CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in April. 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."

I have just started marketing my ground floor flat in Bonvilston. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, but I have just received a yearly maintenance charge demand – what should I do?

It best that you discharge the service charge as normal because all rents and service charges will be allotted on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
