There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Bordon registration formalities.

At present approximately 80% of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Registration occurs after the buyer has moved in to the property therefore 'speed' is not typically top priority but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
