My offer on a property in Petersham has been accepted, the sellers do however have an associated purchase. The vendors have offered on on an apartment, however it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have chosen a high street conveyancing solicitor in Petersham. What do I do now? When do I get the mortgage application with RBS started?

It is normal to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is approx £1k, then valuation, Petersham conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to check that your conveyancer is on the RBS conveyancing panel. Regarding the next phase this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your case, motivation for this property and on the state of the market.

I purchased a terraced Victorian house in Petersham. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Santander. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the exact same address. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?

You need to review 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 Petersham and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also enquire as to the position with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the conveyancing.

Due to the input of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Petersham before retaining conveyancers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the property. My surveyor has said that some banks will not grant a mortgage on such a home.

It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different instructions from Halifax. Should you wish to call us we can check with the relevant mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Petersham. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
