I'm the single recipient of my late mum's estate and I have everything in my name now, including the house in Coulsdon. The Coulsdon property was put into my name in May. I want to move. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be treated the same way as though I had purchased the property in May. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
