It is 10 years ago since I purchased my house in Griffithstown. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been instructed 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 retained by your mortgage company or they could still be with the conveyancers who handled the purchase. Secondly in all probability the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Griffithstown relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.

I have a mortgage with Leeds Building Society for my property in Griffithstown. Conveyancing was finalised months ago. Should I wish to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Leeds Building Society?
You must advise Leeds Building Society before letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Leeds Building Society’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Leeds Building Society directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel firm.

New build sellers have recommended to me a property lawyer and I've received an estimate from them. It's almost three hundred pounds cheaper than my preferred Griffithstown lawyer. What's the catch?
Builders often have lists of lawyers who expedite matters and who know the developer’s paperwork and lawyer. Plenty of developers offer an inducement to use their approved solicitor for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a developer will not put forward a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they need an exchange inside a month. A counter-argument for not opting for the recommended solicitor is that they may be hesitant to fight for your interests at the risk of upsetting the developer. If you worry that this may be the situation you should remain with your high street Griffithstown conveyancing practitioner.
