My mother purchased her house in Caistor ten years ago. She has been married, widowed and has recently remarried. She now intends to dispose of the Caistor property. I suspect that she will simply be requested to supply copies of her marriage papers to the property lawyer but she is anxious it could frustrate the sale of the property. Should she instruct a lawyer to update the land title details for the property?

You are not required to update the title for the property providing you have the evidence needed to demonstrate how the change of name occurred.

Any purchaser’s conveyancing practitioner should check the land registry information and request evidence to prove the change of name for instance marriage certificates.
