My wife and I purchased a semi-detached Georgian property in Wollaton. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Barclays Direct. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. Is it worth asking Barclays Direct to clarify?
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 Wollaton 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 buyers. You can also enquire as to the situation with your conveyancing practitioner who conducted the work.
I'm buying a new build house in Wollaton with a mortgage from Virgin Money. The developers refused to budge the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative told me not inform my solicitor about the side-deal as it would impact my loan with Virgin Money. Is this normal?.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
