Just bought a semi-detached house in Billericay , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my title? My Billericay conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to check the registration formalities are concluded.
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Billericay registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. As of today roughly three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Registration takes place after the purchaser is living at the property so an expedited registration is not always top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Billericay I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Billericay for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan that many years may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Billericay. Before I set the wheels in motion I require certainty as to the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Billericay - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
