It is 10 years ago since I acquired my property in Limehouse. Conveyancing lawyers have just been appointed on the sale but I can't find my title deeds. Is this a problem?

Don’t worry too much. First the deeds may be retained by the mortgage company or they could be in the possession of the conveyancers who oversaw your purchase. Secondly the chances are 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. Nearly all conveyancing in Limehouse relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Limehouse I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 61 years on the lease. There is not much else in Limehouse suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?

If you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be an issue. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.

What is the distinction between surveying and conveyancing in Limehouse?

Conveyancing - in Limehouse or elsewhere - is the process of legally transferring legal title of property from one person to another. It involves the checking of the title. Whether buying or selling, you should be aware of anything affecting the property such as proposals by government departments, illegal buildings, or outstanding rates. The conveyancer should conduct the appropriate searches and inquiries on the property. Surveying relates to the structure of a property itself. A surveyor will look at a house, flat and any outbuildings you are purchasing and will help you discover the condition of the building and, if there are problems, give you a powerful reason for reducing the price down or asking the vendor to remedy the defects prior to you move in.
