Secondly in all probability the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers procuring up to date copy of the land registers.

How does conveyancing in Ruislip Manor differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Ruislip Manor contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because developers in Ruislip Manor tend to purchase the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Ruislip Manor or who has acted in the same development.
We are midway through buying a property in Ruislip Manor. Conveyancing solicitor has told us the property is "Leasehold". Should this make a difference on our mortgage valuation?
Ruislip Manor conveyancing does not usually involve leasehold houses. The crucial consideration here is the length of lease and the ground rent. If there are hundred of years years remaining with a peppercorn rent, it's essentially freehold, so it shouldn't impact the marketability too much.
At the other end of the spectrum, if it's, say, fifty five years it is bound to have a material impact on the value, and probably wouldn't be mortgageable. The remaining lease term and ground rent will be set out in the lease which should be made available to your lawyer.
