I am the registered owner of a freehold property in Chase Side yet pay rent, why is this and what is this?
It is rare for properties in Chase Side and has limited impact for conveyancing in Chase Side 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 have existed for many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the generation of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.
Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 is to be extinguished.

I have been pointed in your direction by three or four local estate agents in Chase Side to find a property lawyer using your seach tool. Is there a financial inducement for Estate Agents to promote your site over a competitor’s?
