As far as conveyancing in Conwy registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any other persons or bodies. At present in the region of three quarters of submission are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Historically registration takes place once the new owner has moved in to the premises therefore registration formalities is not typically an essential issue yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers must contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Conwy. Before I set the wheels in motion I would like to find out the unexpired term of the lease.
Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and almost all are in Conwy - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
