I own a freehold property in Coombe Dingle yet charged rent, why is this and what is this?
It’s unusual for properties in Coombe Dingle and has limited impact for conveyancing in Coombe Dingle 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 hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the generation of new rentcharges post 1977.
Old rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 will be extinguished.
We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to use their panel lawyer as I would much rather appoint a Coombe Dingle based conveyancing firm?
Do check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel lawyers if you want the "fee-free" incentive. Speak to the mortgage company to determine if they make available a monetary alternative. Some mortgage companies have previously offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor near Coombe Dingle.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Coombe Dingle is the location of the property. Is there any guidance you can give?
Flying freeholds in Coombe Dingle are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Coombe Dingle you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Coombe Dingle may determine 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 property.
