Have purchased a a detached house in The Borough , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My The Borough conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain the land registry aspects are concluded.
As far as conveyancing in The Borough is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any third persons or bodies. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Registration is effected once the purchaser has moved in to the premises thus 'speed' is not typically an essential issue yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers should speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
