It is a dozen years since I acquired my home in Lyndhurst. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been retained on the sale but I am unable to locate my title documents. Is this a problem?
You need not be too concerned. First there is a possibility that the deeds will be retained by the mortgage company or they may be in the possession of the conveyancers who oversaw your purchase. Secondly in all probability 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 acquiring current official copies of the land registers.

We had selected conveyancers with offices in Lyndhurst on the Kent Reliance solicitor panel. They are now charging me a separate charge for handling the Kent Reliance mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Kent Reliance?

This charge is not set by Kent Reliance but by your Lyndhurst conveyancing practitioner. Numerous firms on the Kent Reliance panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but many firms incorporate it on their overall fee.

We were going to get a OIP from Barclays this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc).
