It is a dozen years since I acquired my home in Borough Green. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been appointed on the sale but I am unable to find my title deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?
Don’t worry too much. Firstly the deeds may be with your mortgage company or they could still be with the lawyers who oversaw the purchase. Secondly the chances are that the title will be registered 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 Borough Green involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.

How does conveyancing in Borough Green differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Borough Green contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because builders in Borough Green tend to purchase the real estate, 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 property lawyers 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Borough Green or who has acted in the same development.
