Amalgamation of 2 properties in teh same building

<p data-olk-copy-source=MessageBody>Good morning.&#160; I’d be grateful for your advice please on the following request before I submit.&#160; We wish to amalgamate 2 existing properties in the same building into one on the HM Land Registry title record and would be grateful for your advice, please.&#160; I understand an AP1 with evidence will be required and believe the fee is £40 – first question, is this correct, please?</p> <p>Amplifying information:&#160;</p> <ul> <li>Building is an old stable block and hay loft converted into ground and first floor flats around 1930.</li> <li>No 3 is the Freehold for both Nos 3 and 2, No 2 is leasehold.</li> <li>There is no mortgage or 3^rd&#160;party interest in either address; my wife and I are the owners.</li> <li>The District Council, now amalgamated with the County Council, deleted No 3 from its address register for Council Tax purposes, when the two flats were combined (evidence will be attached to AP1).</li> </ul> <p>As I say, grateful for your advice, please.</p>

Good Morning Andrew - your own answer to your first Q is correct&#160;<br> There isn't a second Q as far as I can tell but when applying you should include the details you have stated&#160;<br> The key Q remains however as to why you want to request amalgamation now? If you have a wider reason then please include that<br> The casework team will be the ones to consider the request, not me<br> Hope that helps

Many thanks, Adam.&#160; The answer is simply that we wish to make the single property (which the Council has already allowed) into a single, mortgageable property, which it isn't at the moment being 2 separate titles on the record.&#160; I'm much obliged for your swift response.&#160; Andy
