Flying freeholds in Yelverton are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Yelverton you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Yelverton may decide 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 premises.

My solicitor (who is 235 miles awayhas requested that I execute a stat dec ahead of completion. Could you suggest a conveyancing practitioner in Yelverton who can witness this legal document for me?

strictly speaking you should not need to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily any notary public or solicitor will suffice regardless of whether they are located in Yelverton
