My apartment in Highbridge is up for sale and I have accepted an offer. Does my solicitor need to be required to be on the UBS conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the UBS conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their specifications fairly frequently currently.

I am the sole recipient of my late father’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Highbridge. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in December. I plan to dispose of the house. I understand that there is a CML six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be considered the same way as though I had purchased the property in December. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
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 impacted by that. many banks would take a practical view as this clause chiefly exists to pick up on subsales or the quick reselling of properties.
