I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Abergele is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can impart?
Flying freeholds in Abergele are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Abergele you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Abergele 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 property.
I'm converting the mortgage on my existing house to a buy to let loan with Alliance & Leicester and I will use the ballance of the raised equity towards further property. The area we are talking about is Abergele. Will your lawyers be able to act for the two mortgage companies and tie in the two deals?
Make use of our search tool on this site to ensure that the conveyancers are approved by both lenders. On the basis that they are the solicitor should be able to tie up the two deals but you should have a chat with you conveyancer and communicate your expectations and requirements.
