I happen to be the single beneficiary of my late mum's will and I have everything in my name alone, including the my former home in Dalton in Furness. The Dalton in Furness property was put into my name in July. I now wish to sell up. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the property in July.
