I'm the sole recipient of my late mum's estate and I have everything in my name alone, including the my former home in Toddington. The Toddington property was put into my name in June. I now wish to sell up. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', which means that my property ownership may be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the house in June. Will no one buy the property for half a year?

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." Technically you might be impacted by that. Most banks would take a sensible view as this provision is chiefly there to capture subsales or the wholesaling and assigning of property.

We were going to get a AIP from Principality this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc).

You will need to appoint Toddington solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Principality conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Principality through the process.

After what feels like an age I have had an offer on an apartment in Toddington accepted, the sellers do nevertheless have a tied purchase.

What should be my next step? At what stage do I apply for the mortgage with Principality?

It is usual to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (home loan application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Toddington conveyancing search charges, etc). The first course of action is to check that your solicitor is on the Principality conveyancing panel. Regarding the next steps this very much depends on the specifics of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. In a rising market many buyers will apply for the mortgage with Principality and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with the conveyancing in Toddington.
