My step-father completed his conveyancing in Llanbedrog 7 years ago. He has got wed, widowed and has recently married again. He now intends to dispose of the Llanbedrog property. I suspect that he will just be requested to provide a copy of the marriage certificates to the property lawyer however he is anxious it could hold up the conveyancing. Is it worth updating the title documents for the property?

You are not required to update the title for the property providing you have the proof required to demonstrate how the name change has come about.

Any buyer’s solicitor will examine the title entries and require evidence to establish the name change for example marriage certificates.
