Me and my partner are soon to exchange on the purchase of a property in Bryn Y Baal but as a result of damage from some water damage at the property I have was able negotiate recompense from the seller in the sum of £3k taking the form of a reduction in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of a side agreement but Bank of Ireland are not allowing this. Should they have been notified?

Your property lawyer that is on a Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel is obliged to advise Bank of Ireland of any amendments to the sale price. If you were to refuse your solicitor to notify the reduction to Bank of Ireland then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Bank of Ireland and you would have to appoint a new solicitor for your conveyancing in Bryn Y Baal.

My wife and I have a semi-detached Victorian property in Bryn Y Baal. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and National Westminster Bank. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You should assess 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 Bryn Y Baal and other areas of 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 mortgage companies. You can also check the position with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the purchase.
