I purchased a semi-detached Victorian property in Chalfont St Peter. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Alliance & Leicester . I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two 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 need to review 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 proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Chalfont St Peter and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also check the position with the conveyancing lawyer who carried out the work.
We're novice buyers - agreed a price, but the property agent informed us that the vendor will only go ahead if we use their preferred lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer used to conveyancing in Chalfont St Peter
It is improbable the owners are behind this. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Try to communicate with the sellers directly and make sure they understand (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to instruct your preferred Chalfont St Peter conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a referral fee or achieve conveyancing figures demanded by corporate headquarters.
