I am the only recipient of my late father’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Ripponden. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in September. I plan to dispose of the property. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my property ownership will be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the property in September. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook obliges conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you may be caught by that. How sensible a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the bank as this requirement is principally there to capture subsales or the quick reselling of property.

I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in July 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, Skipton are being pedantic. The Ripponden solicitor who is on the Skipton conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Skipton are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Skipton have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Skipton have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Skipton may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
