Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Billingshurst will order a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers expend in looking into accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Billingshurst.

Me and my brother purchased a semi-detached Victorian house in Billingshurst. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the exact same property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Billingshurst and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also question the situation with the conveyancing lawyer who completed the work.

I have been recommended by three or four local property agents in Billingshurst to select a conveyancer using your seach tool. What’s the financial inducement for Estate Agents to promote your services over a competitor’s?

We don’t offer any referral fee for directing people to this site. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission as a client could think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
