    A leasehold house will always have two titles as someone must be the freeholder, so if your sellers have told you it's freehold then it sounds like you're in the same position as me & the titles haven't been merged for whatever reason :)

    It's always good to know another FTB is in the same position as me haha

    Just an update - Santander had no issues at all with the two titles. From what I can see from what what we've now signed (we exchanged yesterday), the first charge is only going against the freehold title. I could of course be completely wrong - at this point I'm just so relieved we've exchanged they can put the charge wherever they like!
