It is is a decade since I acquired my home in Ruabon. Conveyancing lawyers have now been retained on the sale but I am unable to track down the title deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?
Don’t worry too much. First there is a chance that the deeds will be with your lender or they may be in the possession of the lawyers who acted in the purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the property will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers obtaining current official copies of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in Ruabon relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your home is not registered it is more problematic but is resolvable.
The deeds to our house are lost. The lawyers who handled the conveyancing in Ruabon 4 years ago are no longer around. What do I do?
You no longer need to have the physical deeds to evidence that you are the owner of your registered land or premises, as the Land Registry hold details of all registered land or property electronically.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Ruabon is where the house is located. Is there any guidance you can give?
Flying freeholds in Ruabon are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Ruabon you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Ruabon may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
