I'm the single recipient of my late father’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in West Kirby. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in June. I want to move. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the house in June. Will no one buy the property for half a year?

Am in the process of purchasing my first property in West Kirby. Conveyancing solicitor has been appointed. The mortgage adviser pointed out that a survey is not needed as the property is just 20 yrs old.
The bare minimum you need a Home Buyer's Report. Given the residence is over 10 years old the property will not benefit from a warranty, so you don't want to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of defects a Home Buyer's report may be enough. They will highlight any obvious issues and recommend further investigation if appropriate. If there are any signs of material issues seek a full Building Survey from the beginning.
