I have finally had an offer on a flat in Whitley Bay agreed to, the owners do however have a connected purchase.

It is normal to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur expenses prematurely (mortgage application is approx £1k, then survey, Whitley Bay conveyancing search fees, etc).

Concerning the next steps this very much dictated by the specifics of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market.

Me and my brother own a semi-detached Victorian house in Whitley Bay. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Nationwide Building Society. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same property. Is it worth asking Nationwide Building Society to clarify?
You should read 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 owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Whitley Bay and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also question the situation with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the purchase.
