Me and my brother have a semi-detached Victorian property in Chislehurst. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and Barnsley Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are a couple of entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold under the matching address. 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 owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3).
