Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Hayling Island is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Hayling Island are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Hayling Island 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 Hayling Island 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.
We are in the middle of purchasing a house in Hayling Island. Conveyancing lawyer has told us the property is "Leasehold". Does this adversely affect the salability of the property?
Hayling Island conveyancing does not in most situations involve leasehold houses. The key consideration here is the length of lease and the ground rent. If there are over a hundred years remaining with a nominal rent, it's essentially freehold, so it shouldn't impact the value too much.
At the other extreme, if it's, say, fifty five years it is bound to have a material effect on the value, and most likely wouldn't be mortgageable. The length of lease and ground rent will be stated in the lease to be supplied to your solicitor.
