Me and my brother own a renovated Georgian property in Kings Heath. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Chelsea Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same address. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?
You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Kings Heath and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also enquire as to the position with your conveyancing solicitor who carried out the work.
How does conveyancing in Kings Heath differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Kings Heath come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because house builders in Kings Heath usually purchase the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Kings Heath or who has acted in the same development.
