I am the registered owner of a freehold residence in Blackley yet charged rent, why is this and what is this?

It is rare for properties in Blackley and has limited impact for conveyancing in Blackley but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.

Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges date back hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.

Old rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 will be extinguished.

We are downsizing from our home in Blackley and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. A high street Blackley lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a factory type conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Blackley. Having lived in Blackley for three years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to obtain clarification need.

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)

I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same address. Is it worth asking Nationwide Building Society to clarify?
