house deeds are now kept on line so if you do lose the originals, there is always a copy available.

So yes, I'm fairly sure that you can keep them.

I have the deeds for a property that was sold in the 1960s, when my father acted as executor for a neighbour. Presumably, they would only be needed in cases where title could be proved in no other way.

Sorry Jess, I didn't make myself clear. May I keep them if I sell the property? Gwyn

Does anyone know the current situation re. deeds?.... I have read here that some are being thrown away.... Are they needed in order to sell a property, ( owned, no mortage)?..... Can the vendor or buyer keep them?
