Me and my brother have a semi-detached Edwardian property in Eden Park. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Aldermore. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same address. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?

You need to read 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 Eden Park 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 lenders. You can also question the situation with the conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.

Should I be suspicious by estate agents that I am dealing with are suggesting an online conveyancing firm rather than a High Street Eden Park conveyancing practice?

As is the case with lots of professional services, often input from connections can be worth their weight in gold. Nevertheless there are many players in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, financial adviser and lenders may suggest conveyancers to select. On occasion these solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as experts in their field, but sometimes there is an underlying financial incentive behind the recommendation. You are free to choose your preferred conveyancer. Don't forget that many banks specify a panel list of lawyers you have to use for the lender aspect of your home move.

My wife and I purchased a leasehold flat in Eden Park. Conveyancing and Yorkshire Building Society mortgage are in place. A letter has just been received from someone saying they have taken over the reversionary interest in the property. It included a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1998. The conveyancing practitioner in Eden Park who acted for me is not around. Any advice?

First contact the Land Registry to make sure that the individual claiming to own the freehold is in fact the registered owner of the freehold reversion. It is not necessary to instruct a Eden Park conveyancing practitioner to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for a few pound. Rest assured that regardless, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.

I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord for a lease extension without any joy. Can a leaseholder apply to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Eden Park conveyancing firm to act on my behalf?

in cases where there is a missing freeholder or if there is disagreement about what the lease extension should cost, under the relevant legislation it is possible to make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal to decide the amount due.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement case for a Eden Park residence is 26 Manor Road in July 2010. the Tribunal decided that price to be paid for the freehold was £12,420 This case affected 2 flats. The remaining number of years on the lease was 76.75 and 88.83.

I am an executor of my recently deceased mum’s Will, with a house in Eden Park which will be marketed. The property has never been registered at HMLR and I'm advised that some estate agents will insist that it is completed before they'll proceed. What's the mechanism for this?

In the circumstances that you have set out it seems prudent to seek to register in the names of the personal representative(s) as named in the probate and in their capacity as PRs. The Land Registry’s online guidance explains how to register for the first time and what is required re the deeds and forms. You would need to include and certified copy of the probate as well and complete the form FR1 to refer to the PRs as the applicant.
