I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Bottesford is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Bottesford are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Bottesford 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 Bottesford 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.

Me and my partner have just had a bid accepted on our first home in Bottesford, and need to get solicitors lined up. We have made use of the numerous rating based websites and the results are from all across the country. Is it necessary to have a Bottesford lawyer local to our prospective new home? We are willing to do all the communicating electronically, but I am thinking at some point we may need to attend the lawyer's office to sign documents?

The lawyer does not need to be in Bottesford, but opting for local means that you can go in if needed, by way of example, if a signature is immediately necessary. Also, a Bottesford solicitor have established relationships with local agents and (if the vendor has chosen a local property lawyer) with them, which should help keep things moving faster.
