I'm the sole beneficiary of my late father’s will and I have everything in my name now, including the house in North Acton. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in December. I want to move. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship could be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the property in December.
