I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Littleport is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Littleport are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Littleport you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Littleport 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.

Littleport conveyancing practices are well versed in transacting propertieson private. The conveyancing practitioner should investigate Land Registry data to find any rights or liabilities.

If one exists, the road will likely be maintained and appear better than council owned.
