Have completed on a a detached house in Blackpool , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register my title? My Blackpool conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be sure that my purchase is registered.
As far as conveyancing in Blackpool registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can adjust depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd persons or bodies. At present roughly 80% of such applications are completed within 12 days but some can be subject to extensive hold-ups. Historically registration occurs after the purchaser is living at the premises therefore an expedited registration is not always primary concern but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor can speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
