I have a renovated Victorian property in Easton. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Accord Mortgages Ltd. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold under the matching address. Is it worth asking Accord Mortgages Ltd to clarify?
You should review 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). It is not completely unheard of in Easton and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also enquire as to the position with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the purchase.
