It is is a decade since I acquired my home in Tenby. Conveyancing solicitors have just been appointed on the sale but I can't find my deeds. Is this a problem?

Don’t worry too much. First there is a chance that the deeds will be retained by your lender or they may be in the possession of the lawyers who oversaw the purchase. Secondly in most cases the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors procuring up to date copy of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Tenby relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your property is not registered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.

We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The lender mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to instruct their panel lawyer as I would prefer to use a Tenby based conveyancing firm?

Do check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel lawyers where you take up the "fee-free" offer. Call the lender to explore if they make available a monetary alternative. It is not unheard for a lender to give a £250 cashback as a further option in which case that money can go towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor in Tenby.

The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?

As co-executor for the will of my uncle I am selling a residence in Swansea but I am based in Tenby.
