I want to move. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership may be treated the same way as though I had purchased the house in April.

18 days into buying a residence in Mablethorpe. Conveyancing lawyer has called to say the title is "Leasehold". Will this likely make a difference on our Santander valuation?

Mablethorpe conveyancing does not in most situations involve leasehold houses. The crucial factor here is the unexpired lease term and the ground rent. If there are over a hundred years remaining with a nominal rent, it's virtually freehold, so it’s unlikely to impact the value too much.

At the other end of the spectrum, if it's, say, 50 years it is bound to have a significant effect on the value, and probably wouldn't be mortgageable. The length of lease and ground rent will be stated in the lease provided to your conveyancing practitioner.
