I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in last month in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Sleaford is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Sleaford are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Sleaford you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Sleaford 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 property.

I’m about to sell my 2 bed apartment in Sleaford. Conveyancing has not commenced, but I have just had a quarterly maintenance charge demand – Do I pay up?
It best that you pay the invoice as normal because all ground rent and service charges will be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
