I have been told that property searches are the main reason for obstruction in Swavesey house deals. Is there any truth in this?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published findings of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature amongst the most frequent causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Searches are not likely to be the root cause of delay in conveyancing in Swavesey.

Me and my brother purchased a 4 bedroom Edwardian property in Swavesey. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Britannia. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold with the matching property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You should assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Swavesey and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also question the position with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the conveyancing.

Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Swavesey prior to retaining conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the house. The surveyor has said that some banks may refuse to give a mortgage on such a premises.

It depends who your proposed lender is. Santander has different requirements for example to Halifax. Should you wish to telephone us we can check via the relevant bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Swavesey. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Swavesey to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.
