I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Manor Park is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Should I be wary by third parties that I am dealing with are encouraging me to use a nationwide conveyancing firm rather than a local Manor Park conveyancing firm?
As is the case with lots of service providers, often input from connections can be extremely useful or valuable. Yet there are lots of players in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, financial adviser and lenders might all put forward conveyancers to choose. On occasion these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there may be a commercial relationship behind the recommendation. You have the right to select your preferred conveyancer. However, bear in mind that some mortgage providers specify a panel list of lawyers you must use for the lender related work in your home move.
We own a leasehold flat in Manor Park. Conveyancing was finished in 2010. I have heard that I mustn’t let the lease length get too low. What is the reasoning?
Manor Park residential long term leases are for a set period - normally 99 years when they commenced. However a significant appartments in Manor Park were constructed or converted in the 60’s and so such leases now have less than 80 years left to run. That may sound like plenty of time but Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage companies generally need leases to have a minimum of 75 years unexpired to adequate security. Accordingly when you come to sell the property you will need to extend the term of your lease if you are getting close to eighty years. To maximise your property value you should be considering whether or not to extend your lease long before you come to sell it. Furthermore advantages to doing so before the lease hits eighty years as when the lease falls below 80 years the premium you have to pay to extend starts to increase.
