I'm the only beneficiary of my late grandmother’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Noak Hill. The Noak Hill property was put into my name in July. I plan to dispose of the property. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my property ownership will be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in July. 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 affected by that. many lenders would take a pragmatic view as this provision primarily exists to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.

We are getting the release of further monies on our mortgage from Santander as we want to conduct a loft conversion to our house in Noak Hill. Are we obliged to appoint a local Noak Hill solicitor on the Santander conveyancing panel to deal with the legals?

Santander would not normally instruct a member of their approved list of lawyers to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Santander list.

It best that you discharge the invoice as usual as all rents and maintenance charges should be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
