I happen to be the single recipient of my late grandmother’s will and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Gunnersbury. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in March. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership could be considered the same way as if I'd bought the house in March. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The CML handbook requires conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you may be affected by that. How practical a view lenders take of it, depend on the bank as this obligation is chiefly there to capture subsales or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.
I am selling my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in December 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Kent Reliance are being a right pain. The Gunnersbury solicitor who is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Kent Reliance are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Kent Reliance have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Kent Reliance have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Kent Reliance may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
