I bought my flat on 12 September and my personal details are still not registered. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Burnopfield advises it will be dealt with inside ten days. Are properties in Burnopfield particularly slow to register?
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Burnopfield registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any third parties. As of today approximately 80% of such applications are fully addressed within 12 days but some can be subject to longer delays. Historically registration is effected after the buyer is living at the premises thus an expedited registration is not typically an essential issue yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor could speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
How does conveyancing in Burnopfield differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Burnopfield contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because builders in Burnopfield tend to buy the real estate, 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 property lawyers 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 Burnopfield or who has acted in the same development.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Burnopfield is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Burnopfield are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Burnopfield you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Burnopfield may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
