I happen to be the sole recipient of my late father’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Bourne. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in March. I want to move. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership may be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the property in March. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The CML handbook instructs solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you might be impacted by that. How sensible a view banks take of it, depend on the lender as this provision chiefly exists to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.

Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.

The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore.
I am looking for a flat up to £305k and found one round the corner in Bourne I like with a park and railway links nearby, however it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Bourne for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
