My wife and I own a 4 bedroom Edwardian house in Stoke Newington. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Barclays .

You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Stoke Newington and other areas of 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 purchasers. You can also enquire as to the position with your conveyancing lawyer who carried out the work.

My husband and I plan to purchase our first house in Stoke Newington. Conveyancing solicitor already instructed. The financial consultant pointed out that a survey is not necessary as the house was only constructed in 2001.

At the very least you should order a Home Buyer's Report. As the property was built more than a decade ago the property will not come with a warranty, so you don't want to take a risk. For a property that age with no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report could be enough. The report should highlight any apparent problems and suggest additional investigation where appropriate. If there are any indications of problems get a full Building Survey from the beginning.
