I own a freehold property in Kidsgrove but still pay rent, why is this and what is this?
It’s unusual for properties in Kidsgrove and has limited impact for conveyancing in Kidsgrove 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 date back hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the creation of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.
Previous rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 is to be dispensed with completely.

Flying freeholds in Kidsgrove are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Kidsgrove you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
