I am the only beneficiary of my late father’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Ogmore By Sea. The Ogmore By Sea property was put into my name in April. I plan to dispose of the property. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship could be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in April.
