I'm the sole beneficiary of my late mum's will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in North Baddesley. The North Baddesley property was put into my name in October. I want to move. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership could be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in October. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The CML handbook obliges conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be caught by that. Some banks would take a pragmatic view as this provision is primarily there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of properties.

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Bank of Ireland 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.

Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

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 residence.

My husband and I have AIP from Accord Mortgages Ltd who indicated we could borrow up to £400k. When do we need to appoint a lawyer for conveyancing? North Baddesley is where we are buying.

You can instruct a lawyer now requesting that they open a file for you. This will trigger: 1) the selling agent to issue a Sales Memorandum to the relevant parties 2) the seller’s conveyancer to send out the draft contract. However, do not instruct your property lawyer to order searches until you have your valuation report from Accord Mortgages Ltd and you are happy to move forward.
