I am selling our house in Aylsham and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built land that was not decontaminated. A high street Aylsham conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers used a factory type conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Aylsham. Having lived in Aylsham for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Aylsham is where the house is located. Can you offer any guidance?

Flying freeholds in Aylsham are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Aylsham you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Aylsham may ascertain 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.

Much to my surprise my property lawyer in Aylsham has requested from me identification documents saying that this is part of his obligations as a conveyancer on the bank Solicitor panel. Is this right?

Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules require Aylsham conveyancing solicitors and licensed conveyancers to verify the identity of the person or body they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing business. The Terms and Conditions that you need to sign will no doubt confirm this. Your lawyer is right that the bank also require certain documents to be viewed. If a you refuse to provide ID verification documents, your conveyancer would not be able to accept instructions from you. Your lawyer also has obligations to obtain certain documents in accordance with the mortgage company's UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements
