It is 10 years ago since I purchased my property in Acklam. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been retained on the sale but I can't track down the title deeds. Is this a major issue?
Don’t worry too much. First the deeds may be with your mortgage company or they could be in the possession of the lawyers who acted in the purchase. Secondly the chances are that the land will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Acklam relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your property is not registered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.
My wife and I have a renovated Victorian property in Acklam. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and Britannia. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same address.

You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Acklam and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also enquire as to the situation with the conveyancing solicitor who completed the work.
