It is 10 years ago since I bought my property in Uttoxeter. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been instructed on the sale but I can't locate the title deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?
You need not be too concerned. Firstly the deeds may be retained by the mortgage company or they may stored with the solicitor who oversaw the purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the land will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers procuring current official copies of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Uttoxeter relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your home is unregistered it is more problematic but is not insurmountable.

I am purchasing my first flat in Uttoxeter with a loan from Skipton Building Society. The developers would not budge the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The property agent suggested that I not reveal to my conveyancer about the extras as it could adversely affect my mortgage with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
