I am the sole recipient of my late father’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Basildon. The Basildon property was put into my name in June. I want to move. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', meaning my property ownership could be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the property in June. Will no one buy the property for half a year?

By the strict wording you could be affected by that. many lenders would take a practical view as this requirement is chiefly there to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.

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 Basildon and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also question the position with the conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.
