I am the sole beneficiary of my late grandmother’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Carmarthen. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in December. I plan to dispose of the property. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be treated the same way as if I'd bought the property in December. Do I have to wait half a year to sell?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months."

How practical a view lenders take of it, depend on the mortgage company as this provision is chiefly there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of property.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Carmarthen is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Carmarthen are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Carmarthen you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Carmarthen may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

Why do Carmarthen conveyancing charges are higher for leasehold and freehold properties?

There is always more work required in leasehold conveyancing. Carmarthen has many leasehold properties. There is more hours involved in the purchase: for example, the lease and leasehold information (including up to date service charge, ground rent and buildings insurance details) obtained from the freeholder or managing agents.

If it does not meet these requirements, the lease must be amended, which can involve additional expense for the seller.
