Q: My lawyer has advised me that although my country is leasehold, the register have no data of the m lease.
I currently remortgage and this is the company in the form ve completion.
I “just ordered the title register at the website LR and downloaded, it gives the tenants names but no addresses. It is also possible that the tenants passed away when no-one in the block of terraces where I live, apparently the same tenant (relying on information from the neighbors) are not paid land rent (￡ 10 per year) to lease 10.12 years.
What happens now?
By the way try using www.lease-advice.org.uk (extra .uk on the end). This goes to the page with links to info, the original link I posted will go to a different page on the site without these links.
Good luck.
The property is in Oldham, Lancashire, and the Solicitor provided by the broker is in Newcastle.
I would have a look on the leasehold advisory service (www.lease-advice.org) as this is an excellent source of information and you can call and speak to specialists for free. I spoke to a leasehold solicitor for about half an hour when we had issues with lease renewal a while back and they were really helpful. I think the thing you're talking about is called 'absentee freeholder' or something.
Thanks Cornflake i have had a look at the site and will cal them tomorrow for advice.
The freeholder is the one who is missing. This is a very common problem in some parts of the country.
Where is the property and where is the solicitor? For the vast majority of lenders the worst is that you'll have to pay for some (probably unnecessary) indemnity insurance. If you have factory conveyancers doing the legal work they can't cope with it because they just don't understand.
See this thread which explains things a bit more:

As a conveyancing solicitor I believe the information given in the post to be useful but I accept no liability except to fee-paying clients.
