Me and my brother own a terraced Edwardian property in Holborn. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and The Mortgage Works. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You should 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 proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Holborn and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also check the situation with the conveyancing lawyer who carried out the work.

I was recommended by numerous selling agents in Holborn to select a property lawyer on your site. What’s the financial upside for Estate Agents to market your lawyers rather than a competitor’s?

We refuse to offer any commission for directing people to this site. We found it would be just too difficult to pay a commission as a client could think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

Is it best to instruct a Holborn conveyancing practitioner who is local to the property I am buying? An old friend can perform the legal formalities however his firm is located approximately 350kilometers away.

The primary upside of using a high street Holborn conveyancing practice is that you can drop in to sign paperwork, hand in your ID and pester them if necessary. Having local Holborn know how is a plus. However nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job. If other friends have instructed your friend and in the main were happy that must surpass using an unfamiliar Holborn conveyancing lawyer solely due to them being round the corner.
