I happen to be the sole beneficiary of my late father’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Hillingdon. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in March. I plan to dispose of the house. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship could be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the house in March. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The CML handbook instructs conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months."
