I am the sole recipient of my late mum's will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Rhymney. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in October. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be treated the same way as if I'd bought the house in October. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook instructs solicitors 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 caught by that. How sensible a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the mortgage company as this obligation is principally there to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of property.

A defective lease will likely cause problems when trying to sell a property as they can affect a potential buyer’s ability to obtain a mortgage. Lloyds TSB Bank, Norwich and Peterborough Building Society, and Alliance & Leicester all have very detailed conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease.
