I am buying a new build house in Lower Sunbury with the aid of help to buy. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The house builders rep advised me not inform my solicitor about the side-deal as it could put at risk my mortgage with Birmingham Midshires. Is this normal?.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Lower Sunbury is the location of the property. Is there any guidance you can give?

Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Lower Sunbury you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Lower Sunbury may ascertain 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 property.
