I happen to be the single recipient of my late grandmother’s will and I have everything in my name now, including the house in Camborne. The Camborne property was put into my name in March. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership may be considered the same way as though I had purchased the property in March. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The CML handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be caught by that. How sensible a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the lender as this clause chiefly exists to capture subsales or the quick reselling of properties.

You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
