It is is a decade since I acquired my property in Oldbury. Conveyancing solicitors have just been appointed on the sale but I am unable to locate the title documents. Will this cause complications?
You need not be too concerned. First the deeds may be kept by the mortgage company or they may stored with the lawyers who handled the purchase. Secondly the chances are that the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors acquiring current official copies of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Oldbury relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your property is unregistered it is more problematic but is not insurmountable.

Myself and my fiance have recently had an offer accepted on a flat and had an appointment on Friday with HSBC for the mortgage. They warned us that when it comes to appointing a property lawyer that if they are not on their approved panel of property lawyers then we will be subject to an an additional charge of £200. This is because they would then have to appoint a conveyancer to act for them in addition to the one we select on our behalf and we assume responsibility for their fees. I have requested HSBC to supply me with a list so I can request quotes only from their approved solicitors but was told that I need to check with each individual lawyer to see if they are on the panel. Is their an easier way of going about this?
Ask HSBC what their criteria for panel membership is for a conveyancer.Then ask the lawyer of your choice whether they meet the criteria and have they acted on loans for HSBC before. If the answer to those is yes, then just double check with HSBC. Alternatively please use our search tool and we should be able to identify a conveyancer in Oldbury on the panel for HSBC.
