Hmmm in fairness that's very different to buying a 'normal' flat. Is it the EA cocking up and failing to mention that the freehold for the building came with the flat?
I've heard that a 'freehold' flat is almost impossible to mortgage. Could be wrong.

Currently with Nationwide - It's fine (with them) as long as there are less than 5 properties within the block.

It's mentioned that the sale includes Freehold to the entire building. Maybe I should get them to make it clearer?
http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-53871195.htmlIt's usually because share of freeholders CBA to grant themselves leases leading to comedy further down the line.
Haha, yep, well we would have done if Nationwide hadn't accepted the property in it's current tenure setup.

There's only 1 lease, on the upstairs flat, so by buying my flat they would also be become the freeholders of the building. Maybe I'll just setup a lease on my flat...
