It is a dozen years since I purchased my house in Spalding. Conveyancing lawyers have now been instructed on the sale but I can't find my title documents. Is this a problem?
Don’t worry too much. Firstly there is a possibility that the deeds will be retained by the mortgage company or they could still be with the solicitor who oversaw the purchase. Secondly in most cases the property will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors acquiring up to date copy of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Spalding involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.
