I'm the only recipient of my late mum's estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Lickey End. The Lickey End property was put into my name in April. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my property ownership may be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the property in April. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you may be affected by that. Some banks would take a pragmatic view as this clause is principally there to pick up on subsales or the flipping of properties.
