I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Morecambe is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Morecambe are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses.

Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

Developers have suggested I use a property lawyer and I've obtained an estimate from them. They are nearly £250 cheaper than my family Morecambe property lawyer. Should I use them?

Developers frequently have panels of conveyancers who are quick and who know the builder's contract and property lawyer. As many developers offer an inducement to use their approved lawyer for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a builder won't suggest a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the conveyancing stall when they need an exchange inside a month. A counter-argument for not agreeing to use the suggested conveyancer is that they may prove hesitant to 'push' your interests for fear of alienating the housebuilder. Where you have concerns that this may be the situation you should keep with your high street Morecambe lawyer.
