Product Information

If you have a mortgage on your home, then the bank or building society that provided the mortgage may well keep the title deeds securely in their offices, although many are now not offering this service. However, if you paid for your property outright or if your mortgage has been paid in full, your lawyer will receive the title deeds. It's then up to you to decide whether to store these important documents somewhere yourself or whether to leave them in the hands of your lawyer or solicitor. If you want to have them at home, you will have to invest in a secure, safe and organised way of keeping them. For all these reasons, it is essential that documents are kept in a deed or fire-resistant box. Potential burglary, repossession, fire and flood damage are all risks to title deeds that just cannot be tolerated.
