Have completed on a a detached house in Ipswich , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record the transfer to my name? My Ipswich conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to check that my ownership is recorded.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Ipswich registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any third persons or bodies. At present roughly 80% of submission are completed within two weeks but some can be subject to longer delays. Registration occurs once the purchaser is living at the premises therefore 'speed' is not always primary concern but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers could contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I have been recommended by a few property agents in Ipswich to find a property lawyer using your seach tool. Is there a financial advantage for Estate Agents to offer your site ahead of a competitor’s?
We refuse to give any commission for pointing buyers and sellers our way. We found it would be just too difficult a fee because a client could think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

The benefit of a high street Ipswich conveyancing practice is that you can visit the firm to sign paperwork, present your ID and apply pressure on them if necessary. They will also have local intelligence which is a plus. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job. If you know people who instructed your friend and on the whole were impressed that must surpass using an unfamiliar Ipswich conveyancing solicitor just because they are based in the area.
