Where you are in doubt, ask the lawyer to recommend.

I am the only recipient of my late grandmother’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Nag's Head. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in November. I want to move. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be treated the same way as though I had purchased the house in November. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The CML handbook instructs solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you may be impacted by that. How sensible a view banks take of it, depend on the mortgage company as this obligation is primarily there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.
We were going to get a DIP from Principality this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Principality recommend any Nag's Head solicitors on the Principality conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Nag's Head solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Principality conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Principality through the process.
