I can't travel far from Saltash. Is there a reason why all Saltash conveyancers are not on all lender panels?
Banks point to the fact that solicitor-led fraud is considered to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud annually.The dismissal of law firms from lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the Financial Services Authority in 2011. Its conclusions included recommendations for lending institutions to review their conveyancing panels, which kicked off a major policy change in the sector. It led to mortgage companies removing less reputable firms from their books of approved solicitors .

Almost all properties in Saltash should be revealed. Have you attempted a search to just the postcode. Usually it should mention all the residences within the postcode. Assuming the property is recorded it will be there with a title number. If they bought 48 years ago it's conceivable it may be unrecorded. The property might still be revealed but with the title number identified as 'na'. In this scenario you will need to find the original title deeds which may be with your parent’s mortgage company.
