Splitting title deeds
I was wondering if anyone knows of another way of doing this please? Thinking out loud, but perhaps I could sell the Freehold to myself or a new limited company instead?... any thoughts/ideas would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Duncan

The point is you can't sell anything to yourself, whether it's a new lease of the flat or the freehold. You need to contract with a different legal entity, hence the suggestion of forming a limited company.Yes in theory you could transfer the freehold to a limited company and then grant the lease to yourself as an individual, though not sure it makes much difference to costs. Then it would mean the landlord's interest in the other flat and the shop are also in the company (unless you're setting up leases to yourself for those too), which affects things like tax and ongoing admin.0

Splitting title deed
Hi
I have a house with garden and I also have an acre field which are all in the same title deed. I want to separate the house from the field. As I want to be able to sell the house and garden but keep the field. A solicitor has advised me they can do this for £1000 approx. Can anyone give me any advice/tips on doing this? The house is mortgaged
many thanks0 -
Better to start your own thread rather than confusing people by hijacking the current one.jillforshaw247 said:Splitting title deed
