When does exchange of contracts occur in purchase conveyancing in Branston and do I need to attend the lawyers branch?
Where you are local to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Branston you are welcome to come in to sign contracts. That being said, the law practices we work with supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide as equally detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The executing of the purchase agreement is not the critical part. A signed contract is just a prerequisite for the solicitor to exchange contracts when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a long "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Branston)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.
I have been told that property searches are a common cause of stalling in Branston house deals. Is that correct?

Local searches are unlikely to feature in any slowing down conveyancing in Branston.
Just acquired a semi-detached house in Branston , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record the transfer to my name? My Branston conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain the land registry aspects are dealt with.
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Branston registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can adjust depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any other parties. Currently approximately 80% of submission are fully addressed within 12 days but some can be subject to protracted delays. Registration is effected once the buyer has moved in to the property thus post completion formalities is not always top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor can speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
