I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Hurst is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?
Flying freeholds in Hurst are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Hurst you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Hurst 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.
Being a tenant I am liable for a maintenance contribution for my appartment in Hurst. As a result of flawed financial planning I fell behind with payments. I negotiated a clearance schedule but there remains approximately £3000 remaining to be paid.
I now wish to sell and I am panicking this could hold me back if I have to discharge the amount due in advance. Do I have to settle before - is this viable?
