You don't need to have your own deed as long as it was recorded in the land records to prove you are the owner of the property. When you transfer your property to a new owner your attorney will draft a new deed that transfers your interest in the property.
You do not need the original deed in order to sell your property if it was recorded in the land records. If your deed was not recorded and you don't have it then you have no proof that you own the land. You should contact an attorney who specializes in real estate law. The conveyance of real estate is not a do it yourself project. Errors made by non-professionals can be costly to correct if they can be corrected.

Often, you are better to leave your mortgage running with say £1 in it as the building society will probably give you a reduction in house insurance with a mortgage. There is no reason why you should need to store the deeds at the building society unless you are looking to sell the house soon with them.
Deeds are recorded at your local County Clerk or County Registrar.
