Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Thetford is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Thetford are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Thetford 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 Thetford may decide 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.

Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my basement flat in Thetford. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, but I have recently had a yearly maintenance charge invoice – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?

Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should discharge the maintenance contribution as normal as all ground rent and maintenance payments will be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer until 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.

I invested in buying a 1 bedroom flat in Thetford, conveyancing formalities finalised in 2003. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Similar flats in Thetford with over 90 years remaining are worth £190,000. The ground rent is £65 levied per year. The lease terminates on 21st October 2086

With 61 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £19,000 and £22,000 as well as legals.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
