As long as you have a registered title the information relating to your ownership will be held by HMLR with a Title Number. It is easy to conduct a search at the Land Registry, find your house and secure current copies of the property title for a small fee. If the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will also normally hold a certified duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be obtained for twenty pounds.

We're FTB’s - agreed a price, yet the estate agent informed us that the vendor will only go ahead if we instruct their preferred lawyers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Abersychan

It is improbable the sellers are driving this. Should the seller desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine buyer is not the way to achieve this. Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and make sure they understand (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you will continue to instruct your preferred Abersychan conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will give their negotiator at the agency a kickback or meet his conveyancing targets set by corporate headquarters.
