My step-mother completed her conveyancing in Henllan eight years ago. She has been married, widowed and is now married again. She now intends to the sell the Henllan property. I think she will simply be asked to provide a copy of her marriage certificates to the conveyancing practitioner however she is concerned it will hold up the sale of the property. Is it worth updating the Land Registry documents for the property?
It is not absolutely necessary to bring up to date the title for the property providing you have the proof needed to show how the name change has come about.
The purchaser’s solicitor should review the registered details and need evidence to prove the change of name e.g. marriage documentation.
