I'm the sole recipient of my late grandmother’s will and I have everything in my name alone, including the my former home in High Wycombe. The High Wycombe property was put into my name in July. I want to move. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my property ownership could be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the property in July. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The CML handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you might be caught by that. Most banks would take a pragmatic view as this requirement primarily exists to capture the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of properties.

The mortgage over my property is with Barclays for my property in High Wycombe. Conveyancing has been completed months ago. Should I wish to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Barclays?
Barclays must be informed of your intention prior to renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of Barclays’s mortgage conditions.

You should contact Barclays directly. You need not do this via a Barclays conveyancing panel lawyer.
