I purchased a renovated Victorian house in Wombwell. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and Platform Home Loans Ltd. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. Is it worth asking Platform Home Loans Ltd to clarify?

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 Wombwell and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also check the situation with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the conveyancing.

I'm buying my first flat in Wombwell with the aid of help to buy. The sellers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Wombwell is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Wombwell are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Wombwell you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Wombwell may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

What does the conveyancing estimate include? Is it just for the legal fees, or what you will be paying in total (for example Wombwell searches, land registry fees, etc)
