Your conveyancer that is on a UBS approved list is obliged to disclose to UBS of any variations to the sale price.

I am the only beneficiary of my late grandmother’s will and I have everything in my name alone, including the my former home in Barnoldswick. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in September. I want to move. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship could be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the property in September. 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. How sensible a view lenders take of it, depend on the mortgage company as this requirement is chiefly there to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of property.
