What do I do now? When do I get the mortgage application with RBS going?
It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Much Hadham conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you must ensure that your solicitor is on the RBS conveyancing panel.

In a buoyant market some purchasers will apply for a home loan with RBS and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with searches.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Much Hadham is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Much Hadham are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Much Hadham you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Much Hadham may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. 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.
