I happen to be the sole recipient of my late father’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Newcastle under Lyme. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in February. I plan to dispose of the house. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be considered the same way as if I'd bought the house in February. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The CML handbook obliges 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 pragmatic view as this clause is chiefly there to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of property.
