It is 10 years ago since I purchased my house in Adderbury. Conveyancing solicitors have now been instructed on the sale but I can't locate my deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?
Don’t worry too much. First the deeds may be kept by your mortgage company or they may be in the possession of the conveyancers who oversaw the purchase. Secondly the chances are that the title will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors procuring current official copies of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Adderbury relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it is more of a problem but is resolvable.

My fiance and I are purchasing a three room apartmentin Adderbury with a mortgage from a bank. We would like to retain our conveyancer in Adderbury but our mortgage company says he's not on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct from the our bank panel firms or keep our Adderbury solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that our mortgage company use our Adderbury lawyer?
No, not really. The bank mortgage offered to you is subject to conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the bank's conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had open panels, including almost all conveyancing solicitors in Adderbury : a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your mortgage company.
