I happen to be the single recipient of my late grandmother’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Salford. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in May. I want to move. I understand that there is a CML 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship may be treated the same way as though I had purchased the property in May. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook obliges solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be impacted by that. many lenders would take a practical view as this requirement is chiefly there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of property.

I have a mortgage with Coventry BS for my property in Salford. Conveyancing was finalised a year ago. In the event that I decide to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Coventry BS?

Coventry BS must be informed of your intention prior to renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of Coventry BS’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Coventry BS will allow you to rent out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Coventry BS directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Coventry BS conveyancing panel lawyer.

My wife and I purchased a renovated Edwardian property in Salford. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Barclays . I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same address. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?

You need to read 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 owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Salford and other locations in 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 mortgage companies. You can also question the situation with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the work.

I note that you have a search directory identifying solicitors on the bank conveyancing panel. Do Salford conveyancing firms pay you a referral fee if I appoint them for my own house purchase?

We are a listing service only for law firms wishing to communicate if they are on the mortgage company conveyancing panel or other lender panels. We do not charge referral fees to the any conveyancer that you subsequently appoint for your conveyancing in Salford.
