It is a dozen years since I purchased my house in Undy. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been retained on the sale but I am unable to find my deeds. Is this a problem?
You need not be too concerned. Firstly the deeds may be kept by your mortgage company or they may be in the possession of the lawyers who acted in your purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors acquiring current official copies of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Undy relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your home is not registered it is more of a problem but is resolvable.
