I am selling our home in Wrexham and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built on contaminated land. A high street Wrexham conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers instructed an internet conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Wrexham. Having lived in Wrexham for three years we know of no issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm already. Are they able to advise? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)
Me and my brother purchased a terraced Georgian property in Wrexham. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Platform Home Loans Ltd. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same address. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You need to assess 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 proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Wrexham 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 purchasers. You can also question the situation with your conveyancing solicitor who completed the work.
