I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Nettleham is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Nettleham are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Nettleham you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Nettleham may determine 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 property.

Should one remove a deceased person's name from the title deeds for a property in Nettleham?
If a Nettleham property is jointly owned and one of the proprietors dies, their name will not automatically be removed from the Land Registry title. It is not necessary to remove their name as when it comes to a disposal you would just be required to evidence why the co owner is not a party to the contract, ordinarily this takes the form of a grant of probate.
With a view to making things simpler for the sale of the property you can arrange to have the deceased party erased from the title by applying to HMLR with proof of the death. There is no land registry fee payable.
