Me and my brother own a terraced Victorian house in Melton Mowbray. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Coventry Building Society. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the exact same property. Is it worth asking Coventry Building Society to clarify?

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

What advice can you give us when it comes to choosing a Melton Mowbray conveyancing firm to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?

If you are instructing a conveyancer for your lease extension (regardless if they are a Melton Mowbray conveyancing firm) it is essential that they be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of conveyancing.

Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions could be useful:

Equivalent flats in Melton Mowbray with over 90 years remaining are worth £197,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £55 invoiced every year. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2080

With just 55 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to be between £31,400 and £36,200 as well as costs.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more detailed investigations.

There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be taken into account and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations.
