I'm the only recipient of my late father’s will and I have everything in my name alone, including the house in Chipping Campden. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in June. I want to move. I understand that there is a CML 6 month 'rule', which means that my property ownership may be treated the same way as if I'd bought the property in June. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you could be affected by that. Most banks would take a sensible view as this obligation is principally there to identify the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of property.

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Barclays panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
