I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Valley is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Valley are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Valley you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Valley 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 premises.
I have been advised by numerous estate agents in Valley to choose a solicitor on your site. What’s the financial advantage for Estate Agents to offer your services rather than another?
We refuse to give any referral fee for pointing buyers and sellers our way. We thought it would be too underhand a fee because a client could think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
