It is is a decade since I purchased my house in Fairford. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been retained on the sale but I can't track down my title documents. Will this cause complications?
You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a possibility that the deeds will be with the mortgage company or they may still be with the lawyers who acted in the purchase. Secondly in most cases the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Fairford relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.

The fact that your lawyer is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no conveyancing practitioner should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.
