As far as conveyancing in Derby is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any third parties. At present roughly three quarters of submission are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups. Historically registration occurs after the new owner is living at the property therefore registration formalities is not typically top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
