Me and my brother own a renovated Victorian house in Knaphill. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Birmingham Midshires. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You need to assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3).

You can also check the situation with the conveyancing solicitor who conducted the purchase.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Knaphill I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 years on the lease. There is not much else in Knaphill for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
