I own a 4 bedroom Georgian property in Long Sutton. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Birmingham Midshires. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same property. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You should read 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 owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Long Sutton 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 lenders. You can also question the situation with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the work.

Do you have any advice for leasehold conveyancing in Long Sutton from the point of view of speeding up the sale process?
- Much of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Long Sutton can be bypassed if you appoint lawyers the minute you market your property and request that they start to collate the leasehold information needed by the buyers’ solicitors. Some Long Sutton leases require Licence to Assign from the landlord. If this applies to your lease, you should place the estate agents on notice to make sure that the purchasers put in hand financial (bank) and professional references. Any bank reference will need to confirm that the buyers are able to meet the yearly service charge and the actual amount of the service charge should be quoted in the bank’s letter. You will therefore need to provide your estate agents with the service charge figures so that they can pass this information on to the buyers or their solicitors. If you have the benefit of shareholding in the Management Company, you should ensure that you have the original share certificate. Obtaining a re-issued share certificate can be a lengthy formality and frustrates many a Long Sutton conveyancing transaction. If a duplicate share certificate is required, you should approach the company officers or managing agents (where relevant) for this sooner rather than later. The majority of landlords or managing agents in Long Sutton levy fees for providing management packs for a leasehold home. You or your lawyers should find out the fee that they propose to charge. The management pack sought as soon as you have a buyer, thus reducing delays. The typical amount of time it takes to receive management information is three weeks. It is the most usual reason for delay in leasehold conveyancing in Long Sutton.
