I own a semi-detached Georgian property in Kelsall. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Clydesdale. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same address. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?

You should assess 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 Kelsall and other locations in 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 buyers. You can also check the situation with the conveyancing practitioner who conducted the conveyancing.

How does conveyancing in Kelsall differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Kelsall contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because builders in Kelsall usually buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Kelsall or who has acted in the same development.

I opted to have a survey completed on a property in Kelsall ahead of retaining solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. Our surveyor has said that some lenders tend refuse to issue a mortgage on this type of home.

It varies from the lender to lender. Santander has different instructions for example to Halifax. Should you wish to call us we can investigate further with the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Kelsall. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Kelsall to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.
