It is is a decade since I acquired my property in New Eltham. Conveyancing lawyers have now been instructed on the sale but I am unable to locate my deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?

What is the difference between surveying and conveyancing in New Eltham?
Conveyancing - in New Eltham or anywhere in England and Wales - is the legal term given to transferring legal title of property from one person to another. It involves the investigation of the title. Whether buying or selling, you should be aware of anything affecting the property such as proposals by government departments, illegal buildings, or outstanding rates. The conveyancer should conduct the appropriate searches and inquiries on the property. Surveying relates to the structure of a property itself. A surveyor will look at a house, flat and any outbuildings you are purchasing and will help you find out about the condition of the building and, if there are problems, give you leverage for negotiating the buying price down or asking the seller to fix the defects before you complete your move.
