I have given 8 weeks notice to my current landlord and must leave my let out apartment in Kidwelly by the end of next month. Conveyancing for my house purchase has just started. How realistic is it to complete in six weeks as I wish to avoid having to find temporary accommodation?
It is unwise to give notice on a rental unless you have exchanged. Assuming that you have not previously done so, notify to your solicitor and request that they apply pressure on the owners side, try to get a realistic time scale from them that everyone will work towards
It is is a decade since I bought my property in Kidwelly. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been instructed on the sale but I can't track down my title deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?
You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a possibility that the deeds will be retained by the mortgage company or they could be in the possession of the solicitor who handled the purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors obtaining current official copies of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Kidwelly involves registered property but in the rare situation where your property is not registered it is more problematic but is resolvable.
Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my house can not be found. The conveyancers who conducted the conveyancing in Kidwelly 10 years ago have long since closed. What do I do?
Gone are the days when you need to hold title official documentation to prove you are the registered proprietor of land or property, given that the Land Registry hold details of all registered land or property electronically.

The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.
