It is 10 years ago since I purchased my home in Shropshire. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been retained on the sale but I can't track down the title documents. Will this cause complications?
You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a chance that the deeds will be retained by your lender or they may be in the possession of the conveyancers who acted in the purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Shropshire relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your property is not registered it is more of a problem but is not insurmountable.
Will commercial conveyancing searches disclose planned roadworks that may affect a commercial premises in Shropshire?
Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Shropshire will order a SiteSolutions Highways report as it reduces the time that conveyancers expend in looking into accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Shropshire. The search result provides definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Shropshire.
For every commercial conveyancing transaction in Shropshire it is critical to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. The absence of identifying developments where adoption procedures have not been dealt with adequately can result in delays to Shropshire commercial conveyancing deals as well as present a risk to future intentions for the site. These searches are not conducted for residential conveyancing in Shropshire.
I am buying my first flat in Shropshire with a mortgage from Clydesdale. The sellers refused to move on the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The property agent told me not to tell my solicitor about the side-deal as it would put at risk my mortgage with Clydesdale. Is this normal?.

Is there a distinction between surveying and conveyancing in Shropshire?
Conveyancing - in Shropshire or anywhere in England and Wales - is the process of legally transferring legal title of property from one person to another. It involves the checking of the title. Whether buying or selling, you should be aware of anything affecting the property such as proposals by government departments, illegal buildings, or outstanding rates. The conveyancer should conduct the appropriate searches and inquiries on the property. Surveying relates to the structure of a property itself. A surveyor will look at a house, flat and any outbuildings you are intending to buy and will help you discover the condition of the building and, if there are problems, give you a powerful reason for reducing the price down or asking the seller to remedy the defects prior to you move in.
