I'm the only recipient of my late grandmother’s will and I have everything in my name alone, including the my former home in Goffs Oak. The Goffs Oak property was put into my name in May. I now wish to sell up. I understand that there is a CML six month 'rule', which means that my property ownership will be treated the same way as if I'd bought the property in May. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The CML handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be impacted by that. How practical a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the bank as this clause principally exists to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of properties.
