Me and my brother have a semi-detached Georgian property in Frizington. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and Birmingham Midshires. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the matching address. Is it worth asking Birmingham Midshires to clarify?

You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be 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 Frizington and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also question the situation with the conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Frizington is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Frizington are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Frizington you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Frizington may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

What does commercial conveyancing in Frizington cover?

Commercial conveyancing in Frizington incorporates a broad array of advice, supplied by regulated solicitors, relating to business premises. By way of example, this type of conveyancing can cover the sale or purchase of freehold business premises or, more usually, the assignment of existing business tenancies or the drafting of new leasing arrangements. Commercial conveyancing solicitors can also offer advice on the sale of business assets, commercial mortgages and the termination of tenancies.

My husband and I are novice buyers - agreed a price, but the property agent has warned us that the owners will only move forward if we instruct the agent's chosen solicitors as they want an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a family conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Frizington

It is unlikely the owners are behind this. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Speak to the owners direct and explain that (a)you are motivated purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to instruct your own,trusted Frizington conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing targets demanded by head office.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Frizington. Before I get started I would like to find out the remaining lease term.

Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Frizington - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

Leasehold Conveyancing in Frizington - A selection of Questions you should consider Prior to Purchasing

    Please note that where the lease has fewer than 80 years it will affect the value of the property. Check with your bank that they are happy with remaining years on the lease. Leases with fewer than 80 years remaining means that you will probably require a lease extension sooner rather than later and it is worth discovering how much this will be. Remember, in most cases you would need to own the property for 24 months before you are legally able to exercise a lease extension. How many of the leaseholders are in arrears for their maintenance charge payments? The best form of lease arrangement is if the freehold title is owned by the leaseholders. In this scenario the leaseholders enjoy control and notwithstanding that a managing agent is often retained if it is bigger than a house conversion, the managing agent acts for the leaseholders themselves.
