Just acquired a detached house in Birchington , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register my title? My Birchington conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain the registration is concluded.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Birchington registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. As of today roughly 80% of such applications are fully dealt with within two weeks but some can be subject to extensive hold-ups. Registration takes place after the new owner is living at the property therefore 'speed' is not typically top priority yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
How does conveyancing in Birchington differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Birchington come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because house builders in Birchington tend to buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Birchington or who has acted in the same development.
