I happen to be the single beneficiary of my late grandmother’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Murton. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in August. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my property ownership could be considered the same way as if I'd bought the property in August. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
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 might be affected by that. many mortgage companies would take a sensible view as this clause chiefly exists to pick up on subsales or the quick reselling of property.
When it comes to mortgage companies such as Kent Reliance, do Murton conveyancing practitioners have to pay a yearly amount to be on the conveyancing panel?
We are not aware of any mortgage company fees to be on their panel, although some do levy an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.
We had instructed solicitors located in Murton on the Coventry BS solicitor approved list. They have just invoiced me a separate amount for the legal aspects of the Coventry BS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Coventry BS?
Provided it is contained in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your solicitor may charge a fee for this. This fee is not set by Coventry BS but by your Murton property lawyer. Numerous firms on the Coventry BS panel will quote ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but many firms incorporate it on their overall fee.

I would like to sublet my leasehold flat in Murton. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Do I need to ask my freeholder for permission?
A small minority of properties in Murton do contain a provision to say that subletting is only permitted with prior consent from the landlord. The landlord cannot unreasonably withhold but, in such cases, they would need to see references. Experience dictates that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting permission.
