My partner and I are selling our property in Cleator and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built land that was not decontaminated. A high street Cleator conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers are using a nationwide conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Cleator. We have lived in Cleator for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Do we contact our local Authority to get clarification that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm already. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. 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)

Me and my brother own a terraced Edwardian house in Cleator. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Bank of Scotland. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two 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 review 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 Cleator and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also question the position with your conveyancing lawyer who completed the work.

I opted to have a survey completed on a house in Cleator ahead of appointing lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the property. The surveyor advised that some lenders may not grant a loan on a flying freehold property.

It varies from the lender to lender. Santander has different instructions from Birmingham Midshires. Should you wish to telephone us we can check via the relevant mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Cleator. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

Should I be concerned about 3rd parties that I am dealing with are recommending an online conveyancing firm rather than a High Street Cleator conveyancing practice?

As with many professional services, often recommendations from connections can be extremely useful or valuable. Yet there are numerous people with a vested interest in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks may recommend conveyancers to retain. Sometimes these solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as experts in their field, but occasionally there is an underlying financial incentive behind the recommendation. You are free to choose your own lawyer. You need to be aware that some mortgage providers have an approved list of solicitors you must use for the mortgage aspect of your transaction.
