I got an email this morning saying that they could not now discuss the ownership of my property, as when their system came back on line this morning, the registry shows that the owner of my house is a, MR S Fry, of Norwich, Norfolk. I have warned Mrs W that this may not end well for us :(MikeWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15455583313857077618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-48344606907056387922017-05-30T08:19:47.021+01:002017-05-30T08:19:47.021+01:00Mike, if a house hasn't been sold since before...Mike, if a house hasn't been sold since before the Land Registry was set up, then the paper deeds will still be required until the house is registered for the first time. Then they are redundant for legal purposes.Bayardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15211150959757982948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-89312829544359273072017-05-29T21:18:38.382+01:002017-05-29T21:18:38.382+01:00Shiney,
Thanks for the info. Didn't know.
Ho...Shiney,<br /><br />Thanks for the info. Didn't know.<br /><br />House purchase three years ago (1904 build). Blew off the dust, had a quick look at the previous owners to see what number we were on the deed. Handed it back to solicitor, and have never seen it since.MikeWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15455583313857077618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-23901117878666921662017-05-29T19:46:24.524+01:002017-05-29T19:46:24.524+01:00@MikeW

Its all electronic now .... no paper deeds issued.Shineyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13281261419328886986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-26022974532318040112017-05-29T18:14:11.422+01:002017-05-29T18:14:11.422+01:00Re comments above,

You don't pay an incorrect bill. No problem. They don't seem to care either.<br /><br />Re Fry: I don't know about any of you. But it was the title deed thing that made me chuckle most. Unless there is some evolutionary, superbug advance where Dust mites and Paper mites are able to consume thick, Victorian title deeds, stored by solicitors up and down the country, then I assume my claim to ownership of my pile is pretty safe. <br /><br />I suspect Fry has spunked his fortune on BitCoin type investments for the clever with a smartphone, and now wonders what he would do if he got an email in the morning saying, 'its gone'. His thesis works from there to the worst possible case, etc, etc. You will no doubt see the tearful series on the BBC this winter.MikeWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15455583313857077618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-55012064731218011242017-05-29T13:55:55.300+01:002017-05-29T13:55:55.300+01:00Given that he's a Global Warmmonger, perhaps h...Given that he's a Global Warmmonger, perhaps he just likes purveying doom and gloom?Bayardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15211150959757982948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-68611148147763503252017-05-29T11:19:40.314+01:002017-05-29T11:19:40.314+01:00Every now and then stuff gets hacked or deleted, m...Every now and then stuff gets hacked or deleted, most of it is backed up and can be reinstated somehow, this sort of thing is not top of the list of my concerns.Mark Wadsworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07733511175178098449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-55819551461127774942017-05-29T09:29:58.124+01:002017-05-29T09:29:58.124+01:00Buy gold in eager anticipation.Buy gold in eager anticipation.Lolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04586735342675041312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-30961748336175909552017-05-29T08:18:56.409+01:002017-05-29T08:18:56.409+01:00I was not invited either.
