I purchased a terraced Victorian property in Melton Constable. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and The Royal Bank of Scotland. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same property. Is it worth asking The Royal Bank of Scotland to clarify?
You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Melton Constable and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also check the position with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the conveyancing.
As co-executor for the will of my grandmother I am disposing of a house in Swansea but I am based in Melton Constable. My conveyancer (based 260 kilometers awayhas requested that I execute a statutory declaration before completion. Could you suggest a conveyancing solicitor in Melton Constable who can attest this legal document for me?
Technically speaking you are unlikely to need to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Normally or notary public or qualified solicitor will suffice regardless of whether they are Melton Constable based
