I happen to be the sole recipient of my late mum's estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Old Oak Common. The Old Oak Common property was put into my name in March. I plan to dispose of the property. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship will be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the property in March. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?

The CML handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you could be impacted by that. Some mortgage companies would take a pragmatic view as this obligation is principally there to capture subsales or the quick reselling of property.

My wife and I have a semi-detached Georgian house in Old Oak Common. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and Godiva Mortgages Ltd. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the matching address. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?

You need to assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Old Oak Common and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also enquire as to the position with the conveyancing lawyer who carried out the work.
