I bought my house on 10 July and the transaction details is not yet on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Burnley expressed confidence that it will be recorded in less than a month. Are transfers in Burnley uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Burnley registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry communicate with any 3rd persons or bodies. Currently in the region of three quarters of submission are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to extensive delays. Registration is effected once the new owner has moved in to the premises thus 'speed' is not typically primary concern yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer can contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I have recently realised that I have Sixty One years left on my flat in Burnley. I now wish to get lease extension but my landlord is absent. What options are available to me?
If you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be granted an extra 90 years by the magistrate. However, you will be required to prove that you or your lawyers have done all that could be expected to find the lessor. For most situations an enquiry agent would be useful to try and locate and prepare a report to be accepted by the court as proof that the freeholder is indeed missing. It is wise to seek advice from a conveyancer both on investigating the landlord’s disappearance and the vesting order request to the County Court overseeing Burnley.

How is the lease structured? It is important to be aware whether window replacement or some other major work is anticipated that will be shared between the leasehold owners and may well materially increase the the service charges or necessitate a specific invoice. For many Burnley leaseholds the outlay for major works are not incorporated into the service charges, albeit that some managing agents in Burnley obliged leasehold owners to pay into a reserve fund created for the specific intention of establishing a fund for larger repairs or maintenance.
