I happen to be the only recipient of my late father’s estate and I have everything in my name alone, including the my former home in Langport. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in July. I plan to dispose of the property. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be treated the same way as if I'd bought the house in July. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The CML handbook mandates 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. How practical a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the bank as this requirement chiefly exists to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of properties.
