Me and my brother have a semi-detached Georgian property in Cawthorne. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and National Westminster Bank. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You need to assess 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 proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Cawthorne 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 mortgage companies. You can also question the situation with the conveyancing practitioner who carried out the work.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Cawthorne I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Cawthorne for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?

If you need a mortgage that many years will likely be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.

In sourcing the internet for the term on line conveyancing in Cawthorne it reveals numerous solicitorsin the vicinity. How do I determine which is the right solicitor for me?

Costs for conveyancing in Cawthorne vary, so it's advisable to obtain a minimum of four estimates from different property lawyers. Make sure that you clarify what costs in the quote includes.
