Me and my brother purchased a 4 bedroom Edwardian house in Aughton. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Aldermore. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are a couple of entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same property. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?

You need to review 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 Aughton and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also question the position with the conveyancing solicitor who conducted the work.

How does conveyancing in Aughton differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Aughton approach us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is finished. This is because developers in Aughton typically purchase the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Aughton or who has acted in the same development.

Given that I am about to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds on 3 bedroom house in Aughton I would like to talk to a conveyancer regarding thetransaction ahead of giving the go ahead to the firm. Can this be arranged?
