Every auction property will have a corresponding legal set of papers. This should include most,if not all of the documents that your conveyancer requires. Where you are dealing with leasehold property the conveyancing papers should contain a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing paperwork relating to leasehold premises. You need to pass this on to the lawyer working for you ASAP. Do make sure that you have funds in place to complete the transaction on the set completion date.
I am the single beneficiary of my late grandmother’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Little Mill. The Little Mill property was put into my name in September. I want to move. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', which means that my property ownership may be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the house in September. 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 affected by that. How sensible a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the lender as this requirement is chiefly there to capture the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.

I am looking for a flat up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Little Mill I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Little Mill in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.

Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Little Mill - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
