    (bump). anyone?

    It appears that Coventry seems to be more hung up on purchase from a limited company than with 6 month issue (at least that's what my mortgage advisor has told me, but I suspect he may not be on the top of things).

    While 6 month issue can be either waived (by some lenders) or can be waited to expire, the purchase from limited company which has owned the property through book transfer can't be wished away (if lenders are so averse to it).

    Any advice or thoughts?

    Tell the vendor to stop being a clown and sell it back to himself, if you can find a company willing to waive the 6 month thing

    Or just cut your losses and leave them to this little mess they've created for themselves. Somehow I doubt this property is so much better than others nearby that it's worth this hassle for you.
