Generally, a lost deed will not cause a problem as long as the deed was filed in the land records office. A deed is executed to transfer ownership of property to the grantee. Recording the deed in the land records provides permanent proof of the transfer of ownership. In a subsequent sale of the property the original deed does not have to be produced since the title will be checked in the land records. The recorded copy of the deed will suffice as proof of ownership. Once a deed has been recorded you can obtain a copy for a nominal fee. The only time a lost deed can cause a problem is when it was not recorded. See link.
