Secondly in all probability the title will be recorded 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. Almost all conveyancing in Upper Norwood relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.
