It is is a decade since I bought my home in Aldborough Hatch. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been retained on the sale but I am unable to track down my title deeds. Is this a problem?
Don’t worry too much. Firstly there is a chance that the deeds will be retained by the mortgage company or they may still be with the lawyers who oversaw 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 procuring current official copies of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Aldborough Hatch involves registered property but in the rare situation where your home is unregistered it is more problematic but is not insurmountable.
