I'm the sole beneficiary of my late grandmother’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Bosham. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in August. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be treated the same way as though I had purchased the house in August. 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 caught by that. How practical a view banks take of it, depend on the bank as this requirement primarily exists to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of properties.
Can you point me to a directory of Principality panel conveyancers in Bosham on the Council of Mortgage Lender’s Website?

Will our lawyer be asking questions concerning flooding during the conveyancing in Bosham.
Flooding is a growing risk for conveyancers dealing with homes in Bosham. There are those who buy a house in Bosham, completely aware that at some time, it may be flooded. However, aside from the physical damage, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, adequate building insurance, or dispose of the property. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.
Lawyers are not qualified to give advice on flood risk, but there are a number of checks that may be undertaken by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which should figure out the risks in Bosham. The conventional set of information sent to a buyer’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a usual question of the vendor to determine if the premises has ever been flooded. If flooding has previously occurred which is not notified by the vendor, then a purchaser may bring a compensation claim as a result of such an misleading answer. The purchaser’s lawyers will also carry out an environmental search. This will disclose whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, additional inquiries should be conducted.
How does conveyancing in Bosham differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Bosham come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because new home sellers in Bosham usually buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Bosham or who has acted in the same development.
