My wife and I purchased a 4 bedroom Georgian house in Wombwell. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and The Mortgage Works. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the matching property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You need to review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for 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 Wombwell and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also enquire as to the position with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the purchase.

I'm buying a new build house in Wombwell with the aid of help to buy. The sellers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The house builders rep told me not to tell my conveyancer about the deal as it could affect my mortgage with Bank of Ireland. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on last month in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Wombwell is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Wombwell are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Wombwell you must be sure that your lawyer goes 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 Wombwell 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 residence.

My partner is purchasing a ground floor flat in Wombwell. He was given a quote by the conveyancing practitioner recommended by the selling agents and it came to £1275 . It was ten years ago since I sold and purchased a house and the fee was £440. Have costs really increased to that extent?

What does the conveyancing estimate include? Is it just for the legal fees, or what you will be paying in total (for instance Wombwell searches, land registry fees, etc)
