I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Fulham is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?
Flying freeholds in Fulham are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Fulham you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Fulham 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 residence.

My in 2005. He has since got married, divorced and is now married again. He now intends to the sell the Fulham property. I think he will just be asked to provide a copy of the marriage certificates to the property lawyer however he is worried it could delay the sale of the apartment. Should he instruct a lawyer to update the title details for the property?
It is not absolutely necessary to update the register on the basis that you have the evidence needed to demonstrate how the name change resulted.
The purchaser’s conveyancer will review the title details and ask for evidence by way of proof of the name change for instance marriage certificates.
