I'm the single beneficiary of my late father’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Eccleshall. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in August. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be considered the same way as if I'd bought the house in August. Will no one buy the property for half a year?

We had selected solicitors based in Eccleshall on the Bank of Ireland solicitor panel. They are now charging me a supplemental charge for dealing with the Bank of Ireland mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by Bank of Ireland?

Numerous firms on the Bank of Ireland panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.
